Software for Races
The free software from Vola (www.vola.fr)
is recommended. It is relatively easy to get to grips with, and deals with
races from simple two-run slaloms right through to FIS combined events.
SkiPro is the latest program, so if you are starting out with software
from scratch we recommend using that.

Connecting Timing Systems to Computers
Important note: if you are contemplating hooking up a timing system to your
notebook PC, its worth remembering that many modern notebooks don't have a
serial port (a common means of communicating between timing and PC).
However, it may well be possible to use a serial-to-USB converter. Keyspan has been mentioned as a
reliable unit, although others may also work just as well.
