I didn't have to use the US living meters until I started throwing knives. I've joined several groups, mostly in Asia and Europe, and they all use metric. If you have competitions, they are all measured or set in meters. I needed a good, durable and basically waterproof tape measure that would go at least 12 meters. This one goes to 30 and also measures inches/feet on the opposite side, best of both worlds. One side of the tape is colored green for meters and the other side of the tape is colored white for inches/feet. It has a metal latch at the end that can be hooked at the starting point, as well as a plastic stick that can be driven into the ground and hooked there. Of course it has a handle to remove the tape after the measurement. This is a very good device and should last a long time.
