The BAL.ON Smart Kit
A training system for all areas of golf
The BAL.ON Smart Kit consists of a pair of pressure soles, smart pods, and a smartphone app. Relying on pressure data and AI, it gives you real-time analysis and coaching. BAL.ON captures information invisible to human eyes, improving your competitive edge whenever and wherever you need it.
See more of your swing – the BAL.ON heatmap
The BAL.ON heatmap shows how you shift your weight during the golf swing. Quite literally, it unveils the footprint of your motion, as your feet mark the beginning of the golf swing’s kinetic chain. This chain goes throughout your entire body. Consequently, your pressure patterns can help spot where you differ from the “corridor of the ideal” in your motion. With the BAL.ON heatmap, you see details of your movement that no other system can give you.

How it works – 18 sensors and your smartphone eyeing your every move
BAL.ON uses two sources of data: sensor data of the pressure soles as well as video data you capture with your smartphone.
The 18 highly sensitive Force Sensing Resistors (FSR) cause a change in electrical resistance when pressure is applied on them. Via the smart pods, this signal goes into the app.
The BAL.ON app monitors your pressure values and syncs them with your video sequences. It compares both with thousands of reference player data, among them many pros. It spots where you have potential for improvement – and it tips you off how to improve measurably!
Instant and objective feedback – the BAL.ON metrics
BAL.ON rates your swing along three basic metrics: setup, backswing, and impact. Mastering these swing key positions improves your ball-striking quality and consistency. The advanced metrics are transition timing, vertical timing, max vertical, and rhythm. Understanding and perfecting the timing minutiae within your weight shift gives you the extra momentum for clubhead speed and ultimately shot length. It also helps achieve the effortless grace that advanced players look for in the golf swing.

The BAL.ON Smart Kit
Always at your fingertips – AI coaching by BAL.ON
Through the BAL.ON app, you receive a rating for each swing or sequence of swings you perform. If you like, you can activate a coaching function based on this rating. It points you towards specific drills that improve key parts of your swing technique. These drills help you address precise details in your golf training. Our AI coaching is always available, wherever you are, fitting into the busiest of schedules.
Systematic motivation – the BAL.ON tracking function
BAL.ON keeps track of your progress, allowing you to evaluate your training regularly. Tracking is a great motivational factor for players of all skill levels. It is also one of our founding principles to make your data yours forever. You can always rely on past records for a sound training basis — and to spur you on towards new improvements.
Power to proprioception – BAL.ON trains your feeling
Feeling centered and actually being centered can be two very different things — a startling revelation even for advanced players. BAL.ON’s instant and finely detailed feedback helps you train your feeling like a muscle in your body. This is critical if you want to feel the complex and refined motions characteristic of golf. The BAL.ON Smart Kit is one of the best choices in this respect, as it works in all areas of the game — the drive, the chip, and the putt. When you train with it, you refine your proprioception to be a reliable yardstick for your motion.
Set your own targets – the BAL.ON traceline drill*
While BAL.ON is a great way to train individually and independently, it can also enrich the work you are doing with your coach. With the traceline drill function, your coach can provide you with a target line for your ideal weight shift. It is up to you which area of the game you want to focus on — driving, chipping, and putting all have distinct ideal weight trace lines. Have yours drawn in for you individually and start improving significantly.
