Stride is an Atlanta based start-up founded by a Georgia Tech student, with a mission of making search and rescue technology in the backcountry simple, accessible, and hassle-free. Outdoor recreation is one of the greatest pastimes, but it comes with some great responsibility. If you are unprepared, a once great pastime can become a nightmare very fast. Without cell service in the backcountry, you need a satellite communicator to access help if something goes wrong. Getting these devices requires planning beforehand and paying for annoying subscriptions. This is where Stride comes in. Stride is developing a small, lightweight, and low-cost rental device that can ping emergency personnel with your exact location if something goes wrong in the back country. Simply buy it at a National Park and return it after your hike. No setup. No subscriptions. No planning. Just rent and go, knowing we have your back. Stride is safety without the hassle.
