Collection: MicroGate

Microgate timing systems for athletics, skiing, motor sports and performance testing — Italian engineering trusted from grassroots clubs to World Cup venues.

TIKTRA is an authorised Microgate partner serving federations, training centres, ski clubs and high-performance labs across Europe. As the sports engineering arm of Rhine Projects International, we work with coaches, club admins and venue managers who need timing that is FIS-, World Athletics– and FEI-compatible without overspending on capability they will never use. Microgate is one of the most respected names in sports timing electronics, building everything from compact wireless gates for daily training to fully redundant World Cup–level race timing rigs.

The collection includes complete sport-specific kits for alpine and Nordic skiing, snowboard slalom, track and field, equestrian show jumping, cycling track and time trial, roller racing, canoe, bobsled, horse galloping, dog agility, freediving, gymnastics, falconry, motor sports rally and speed climbing. You will also find the full Witty wireless timing gates ecosystem, Optojump optical measurement systems, HiClock display kits, the Rei Pro handheld chronometer and supporting accessories — chargers, tripods, cables and carry bags.

Configurations vary widely between disciplines, so we recommend talking to us before ordering. TIKTRA helps match the right Microgate package to your venue size, athlete count and certification needs, and we provide setup support and operator training. Lead times are typically 2–6 weeks depending on stock. Request a quote on any item to start the conversation.

Common questions

  • Which Microgate system is right for a club versus a federation event? Witty is ideal for clubs and training squads; the REI2 / Racetime2 platforms cover federation-level events with redundant printing, multi-channel inputs and ratified output. We will scope this with you based on the events you run.
  • Are Microgate systems compatible with World Athletics or FIS rules? Yes — Microgate timing electronics are used at FIS World Cup ski races, World Athletics events and FEI competitions, and meet the technical requirements for officially recognised results when configured correctly.
  • Can I expand a Witty or Optojump kit later? Both are modular by design. Optojump runways extend in 1 m increments up to 30 m, and Witty kits accept additional gates, displays and RFID accessories. TIKTRA holds compatible add-ons in stock.
