Compare side by sideOne score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Mobile performance score: 71
71/100Your mobile performance score is 71. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Klaviyo and Clarity and others), adding 841 KiB and 762 ms of main-thread time.
Render-blocking requests
800 ms4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 800 ms.
Improve image delivery
150 ms · 366 KiB15 images could be 366 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 450 ms
450 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 450 ms of main-thread work and 322 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
4 long tasks on the main thread
4 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 382 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Main-thread work: 2.9 s
A phone's processor spends 2.9 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Reduce unused JavaScript
150 ms · 156 KiBAbout 156 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Reduce unused CSS
25 KiBAbout 25 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
18 KiB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (18 KiB).
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify CSS
5 KiB5 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.1 s
5.1 sYour largest element takes 5.1 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Gear built around people, not logos. Official player stores…”.
Time to Interactive: 9.5 s
9.5 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 9.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 313 ms
313 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 313 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Speed Index: 4.1 s
4.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 2.7 MB in 199 requests
2.7 MBYour homepage downloads 2.7 MB in 199 requests on a phone: images 884 KiB (23), other files 775 KiB (103) and scripts 751 KiB (59). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit
0.76 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.76 g of CO₂e: 91.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 39 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
