BLACKBEARD/X

The BlackbeardX combines the MantisX with the Blackbeard, taking your dry-land training to a new level.

It analyzes your shooting movements, going far beyond simply measuring hits or times. Instead, it evaluates your efficiency with rapid fire and multiple targets.

The system provides real-time feedback on your movement and technique, allowing you to pinpoint areas for improvement. Simultaneously, the automatic trigger reset enables uninterrupted, smooth training.

Connected to the app, you gain access to exercises, analyses and training programs – for effective and data-based shooting training without ammunition.

Your next level in shooting training

Take your shooting training to a new level – with modern technology that helps you better understand and specifically improve your performance.

1. Score for target delay

Most shooters hesitate longer on the target than necessary. This metric tells you exactly how long you're delaying – and how much faster you could shoot with the same accuracy.

2. Overshooting

Most shooters hesitate longer on the target than necessary. This metric tells you exactly how long. When transitioning between multiple targets, the weapon is often moved past or through a target before returning to fire. BlackbeardX quantifies the enormity of the overshoot you cause – and how much faster you could shoot with the same accuracy.

3. Transition path

The most efficient path between two targets? A straight line. Deviate from this path, and your score will decrease. The more efficient the path, the more effective the shooting.

comparisons

Compare your session to previous sessions or those of other shooters. Each dimension is evaluated comparatively, with overlaid visualizations to more easily highlight strengths/weaknesses and consistency/inconsistencies.

Heat Trace

A quick switch allows you to see where your speed changes affect your movements and where your movements affect your speed changes.

Drill settings

You can set the allowable/acceptable delay for target acquisition, the time limits for the starting sum, and the par times.

Phase times

A detailed breakdown after the shot, showing how long you stayed on the target after the shot (goal: to minimize this and start the transition earlier), how much time you spent transitioning, and how much time you stayed on the target before the shot.

 

And this is just the beginning. Expect regular, extensive, and free app updates.
