Methods and systems are disclosed for determining speed, power and/or impact (sporting characteristics) of persons involved in activity. Wireless signals may be generated indicative of the sporting characteristics for receipt and display on a watch worn by the user or on a remote display. Sensors may attach to the person or to a vehicle ridden by the person, to gauge activities such as jogging, hockey, biking, football and aerobics.

1. A system for determining the speed of a moving person, comprising (a) a GPS sensor configured for attachment with the moving person, for generating signals indicative of earth location, and (b) a microprocessor configured for attachment with the moving person, for processing the signals to determine the speed, and (c) a wireless transmitter configured with the housing for generating wireless signals indicative of the speed, the GPS sensor, wireless transmitter and microprocessor being constructed and arranged within a common water-tight housing, the housing being attached for attachment to the person or to a non-motorized vehicle ridden by the person, and a watch having a wireless receiver for receiving the wireless signals and for displaying the speed to the person.2. A system of claim 1, further comprising a battery for generating power to the GPS sensor and microprocessor.3. A system of claim 1, the microprocessor configured to determine, from the signals, one or more of drop distance, height, distance traveled and airtime of the moving person.4. A system of claim 3, the OPS sensor and microprocessor configured to receive and process differential GPS information enhance accuracy in determining one or more of the speed, drop distance, height and distance traveled.5. A system of claim 1, the vehicle comprising one or more of a bicycle, a snowboard, and a ski.6. A system of claim 1, the microprocessor being configured to determine one or more of a peak speed and an average speed, the watch having memory for storing data representative of the speed, peak speed and average speed and having a user interface for accessing the data selectively.7. A system of claim 1, for determining the speed of a moving person, comprising (a) a GPS sensor configured for generating signals indicative of earth location, and (b) a microprocessor for processing the signals to determine the speed, the GPS sensor and microprocessor being configured within a watch worn by the person.8. A method for determining the speed of a moving person by use of a GPS sensor, wireless transmitter and a microprocessor, comprising:sealing the GPS sensor, wireless transmitter and microprocessor in a common water-tight housing; attaching the housing to the person or to a non-motorized vehicle ridden by the person; moving the person; generating GPS signals with the moving person and indicative of earth location; and processing the signals with the moving person to determine the speed; and generating wireless signals at a first location about the person and receiving wireless signals on a watch worn at a second location about the person to display the speed to the person. 9. A method of claim 8, the step of processing comprising processing the signals to determine one or more of drop distance, height, distance traveled and airtime of the moving person, and further comprising displaying at least one of the drop distance, height, distance traveled and airtime at the watch.10. A method of claim 8, further comprising determining, at the person, one or more of a peak speed and an average speed and storing data representative of the speed, peak speed and average speed in the watch, and further comprising displaying at least one of the peak speed and average speed at the watch.11. A system of claim 1, the microprocessor configured to determine, from the signals, drop distance of the moving person.12. A system of claim 1, the microprocessor configured to determine, from the signals, height of the moving person.13. A system of claim 1, the microprocessor configured to determine, from the signals, airtime of the moving person.
