1. A system comprising:
- a data storage device storing athletic performance data obtained from a plurality sensing units, each of the sensing units being configured for attachment to a person and for generating the athletic performance data; and
a server operatively connected to the storage device, wherein the server is configured to provide a comparison of the athletic performance data;
wherein the comparison is a quantitative comparison of airtime of a first user at a first geographical location and airtime of a second user at a second geographical location that is different from the first geographical location, and the comparison is used to determine a winner of an athletic competition.
