@BastMaSVSRS9PP That’s what I would use it for office and indoor Race training. Trail running and vertical trekking. but I’m not fully convinced

@Brad_Olwin Thanks, it’s helpful to know that it’s been noted by the testers, and that it hasn’t just fallen through the cracks. I realize that every new bit of development is prioritized according to various parameters, but fingers crossed this is such a small fix that it can actually get done.

@gizmo yes it s a little bit softer

My little wishes: a) use a bigger font for notifications. i am 51 years and my eyes are not the best anymore. a bigger font would really help me. b) emoticons for notifications. really miss them c) nice to have: more watchfaces or maybe an editor so the community can create new watchfaces

@robis

Any photos and/or experience with Race and cycling?

@UjcoCZ thank you for the confirmation. Out of interest do you get any intensity levels recorded with your Karoo rides within the Suunto App? I have downloaded the app and by using RunGap I have managed to get a lot of data in there; just to see how the platform works. So far I have the training load populated, it is not quite the same as my Training Peaks account but I can see that the TSS calculations use different methods; heart rate over power and the like. This appears to be pretty easy to fix for now but I do not have anything listed in the Intensity section. Would this be down to have actually having a watch paired with zones set, and as such there is no way for the app to know the zones in which to rank them. If you have a watch paired that has zones do your Karoo rides contribute to the intensity zones. [image: NfcJyIt] Cheers!

@GiPFELKiND vermutlich eher unwahrscheinlich… ich habe das jedoch gestern gelesen, und musste an dieses Problem denken

@maszop I hope this clears up an issue. When you think something is a bug and you learn it works as intended we are simply saying that is how it is designed. Why the function was designed that way is something we cannot answer and there may be potential problems changing it or future plans that require the design despite your observation that it seems a bug… All we can do here is hopefully report and ask. We are not Suunto.

@shanghai-on-sea said in Lock screen while paused: @Brad_Olwin an accidental button press while recording an activity will cycle through screens, yes. But while paused, an accidental button press can end the activity entirely. Don’t think you’ve quite caught the gist of the issue here. Previous Suunto watches allowed you to lock the device while on the pause screen. The Race does not, which seems an oversight. I have caught the gist of the issue. To end an activity you would have to press the upper button accidentally then scroll accidentally to end and then accidentally push in the crown button. Highly unlikely to happen! If you accidentally press the upper button the default is resume so the worst that would happen is you pause. Then there is the automatic reminder once you are moving again so you would notice you have accidentally paused. Not once in many, many mountain/trail runs and SkiMo with poles where my wrists are flexing substantively have I accidentally pressed a button on the Race, other than the crown, which simply advances screens. So, I don’t think there is much chance you can accidentally end the activity.

@efbill That is like the one I just got from Amazon, and it’s good for the price. But it does not keep the watch anchor point from rubbing on my wristbone protrusion. So I’m hoping to try a wider strap that covers that bit of the watch.

Suunto neasures or make vo2max tag if you train much time in your Training in end from zone 4 and zone 5 (orange and red) there it is necessary that you set your heart rate zones correcly, means if you know your anaerob Treshhold you have set THIS Treshhold to end from zone 4! Means if you know for example that your anaerobic Treshhold is 168 beats per minutes than you have to set the 168 as end from zone 4. Zone 5 starts then at 169 until your maximal heart rate. Second you have define your areobic Treshhold, its the point where your body begin to produce lactat. This you have set correct as ending from zone 2 (Green Zone) . The other heart rate zones you can set how you think its good for you. Zone 1 ends normal at 60% from your maximal heart rate!

@Stefano-M64 said in Just bought Race - struggling very dark or Off screen: A couple of days ago, I bought a S9PP for my wife, choosing that model for her small wrist, well the comparison between the two displays is, ehm … embarrassing OK, after just few days of thinking, my wife and me decided to send the S9PP back to Amazon, there is really no reason to keep that model, paid 399€, when the Race cost only 440€. The Race’s price puts a new reference, so that now the S9PP should cost no more than 300€ to be reasonable. Rumors about Race S made the decision easier

@surfboomerang custom modes are not touched, original ones are reset.

@enriqueescoms said in French wording does not fit on the screen: @Anthony-Guillemette yeah, in spanish is pretty the same in many times. in Italian too… but that’s a problem if any kind of UI, English is a quite concise language

@Umer-Javed just to clarify, during LVO (Low Visibility Operations) approach and landing we don’t use GPS alt, rather radio altimeter for the DH/DA For a standard ILS minimas are based on barometric reference instead, ciao

@Ecki-D said in Charging on the go: a bike mount with charger there are several 3D print holders on the web people made for different Suunto watches, they could be adapted to include the charger

@Łukasz-Szmigiel yes, also for watches, surveys show a lot of what’s to come

maybe the unit is defective, it creates too many problems imho
