Deepron's history

Timers available on the market do not fully satisfy climbers. The IFSC world championship in Paris (2012) was disturbed by timing defects, that alter speed climbing's image. Sylvain asks Philippe to think about designing a new solution.

The prototypes give full satisfaction. The FFME (french climbing federation) invite Deepron to provide and manage timers on the speed climbing national championship and the upcoming Chamonix IFSC world cup.



The IFSC recognizes Deepron as an approved supplier for world-class speed climbing competitions.

Deepron now sells its climbing timers.

Speed climbing becomes more and more famous. Deepron provides for many newly built walls around the world.

The IFSC enacts new rules for speed climbing. Sizes and pressure forces on pads are normalized and LED displays shall now include milliseconds, for hundredth of a second ties have become too common.

Deepron becomes a LLC, which will allow it to grow and answer the increasing demand for timers.



The IFSC proposes timers specifications for boulder and lead. The SCEV-2 is fully compliant.

Deepron now proposes a VAR solution service for competitions.

In Madrid, the IFSC tests the double-wall, 4 climbers speed format.


The timers are adapted for the new disciplines : 4 climbers and 2Vs2 relays.
