The X-Compass Model 3 Stable is elite-level compass recommended for accurate azimuthal moving. A perfect combination of time of returning and stability of a needle. It will be suitable for experienced runners as well as beginners.
The new X-Compass GT compass combines the best design elements of the thumb and the traditional compass plate and includes new technical solutions. GT plate innovations provide significantly improved running direction and distance control, making the map easier to read. With the new X-Compass GT plate, it is much easier to keep the chosen path to the checkpoint, thus increasing confidence and running speed.
COMPATIBLE
The new GT plate can be used on both - the right and left hand, compatible with all X-Compass capsules with different needle speed and stabilization qualities.
BETTER DISTANCE CONTROL
The red dots at the top of the plate allows you to fix the current location and read the map in that area.
PRECISE MOVEMENT
Using the new technical solutions of the compass plate, it is possible to run the selected distance stage route significantly faster and more accurately.
HOW TO APPLY to move from point Xa to Xb:
There is a running direction line on the compass plate, that is interrupted between two red dots. One of the dots shall be placed at the athlete's location on the map and the other in the direction of dot Xb.
The distance between the red dots of the plate is exactly 2cm to determine the running distance in nature.
An open field at the top of the compass plate makes it easier to read the map in the running area.
When turning the map according to the compass, the direction line on the GT plate and the extended end of the plate clearly indicate chosen running direction.
To maintain the chosen direction while running, the athlete must constantly rotate his body perpendicular to the direction of the compass direction. This is not an easy task because a person has binocular vision, but the direction line visually " shifts slightly" with peripheral vision. The horizontal line at the bottom of the compass plate (T-line) helps to keep the compass in the right position to ensure the vertical line of the direction is kept straight, thus improving the accuracy of movement.
The new compass allows to determine and control the direction of running much more precisely.
