Woo Sports, the Boston-based maker of technology that tracks statistics for kiteboard and snowboard enthusiasts, has raised $2.7 million in new funding, according to a Monday regulatory filing.

The startup is an alum of the 2014 startup accelerator program Techstars Boston and offers a motion sensor device and app that allows users to track their athletic performance and compete with others.
Founded by European entrepreneur Leo Koenig in 2013, Woo Sports has garnered interest from companies such as Burton Snowboards and Red Bull.
Woody Benson, a Boston-based venture capitalist at Prism VentureWorks, is listed on the filing.
