@isazi yes, this is gamechanger! and it is worth to mention, that during pause you can change/add another sport app from option menu.

@dombo no need to pause, you can do it during the activity just by holding the middle button to enter the settings screen.

Semplicemente spettacolare!!!

@Tieutieu first off, these are completely different ways to measure TSS.

have you configured anything in your watch in regards to power zones for running?

Long history short, TSS is calculated using formula: TSS = (sec x NP x IF)/(FTP x 3600) x 100

The important metric here is FTP, which is the best effort in average watts a runner can hold for 60 mins straight only.

You’ll need to do test to find what your current running FTP is, I use Stryd power meter so I get FTP (CP in Stryd terms) from them. In your case, you can do known field tests like 3/9 test or 30 time trial to get this, or even try S+ FTP Test, this is for cycling but it can apply here as an initial reference.

Once you have this FTP number, you set your power zones making sure this number is your z4 upper limit in your Suunto power zones for running.

Suunto is missing the key feature of allowing us to set FTP value alone, this is available in TrainingPeaks though.

Once at least you do this, you won’t get any meaningful TSS based on power.

If you want to explore power based TSS, highly recommend opening a TP free account and playing there too.

Hope this helps

Wow ! Thanks a lot ! So I’ll take time to set everything properly, and until then I’ll set to tss hr calculation to keep « known values ».

@mikekoski490 Let’s call Non-OHR Version then not “athlete version”. Let’s call it “adventure edition” or Suunto Ambit (next gen) But probably won’t came true…

mikekoski490

@suuntastic Maybe! I think if they launched a watch without OHR, all the reviewers would be like '…and what’s with the bezel, price point, and WTF - no OHR!!! What was Suunto thinking!!! So 1998…"

suuntastic

@mikekoski490 unfortunately probably

@tomasbartko will wait for the “gentleman” edition/Suunto 10 in about 6 month. Will have all the SV features in S9PP size at a lower price point, :dreaming:

Is there a reason why Suunto devices are still not being listed in Strava? It’s been this way for some time now.

You can rename your shoes as suunto vertical, and select your shoes for the move

@TyreseJ4 we had contacted Strava but it seems they are slow

Brad_Olwin

@Tieutieu are your power zones set correctly? You can set separate zones for running.

@freeheeler @coqiner
just checked my sand watch and there is only one strap size in it

@zhang965 I don’t have a Suunto Vertical and will never have one. I think I’ll stick with Garmin. This is just something I’ve noticed on Strava with the Peak Pro and the new Suunto Vertical.

Damn, you give envy to possess a Garmin.

BTW I did a comparison of 9pp and vertical, 9pp sucks at 360°

@zhang965 I can’t afford to have ‘‘em all.

Wait for special deal, + discount code + PayPal 4 times payment.will be a good deal

Vertical is not yet finished, you can wait till it became stable

TyreseJ4

@zhang965 But that’s kinda my point. Right now I’m using a new Fenix 6x. When the time comes I’ll need money to upgrade to the 7x or the Enduro 2 when Garmin releases something new; which it’s my understanding they’ll be releasing an updated Fenix 7 and Epix 2 in a month or 2. Unlike others who can afford to buy multiple watches from multiple brands, I have to pick one…and I’m ok with that. However with that said I think with the release of the Suunto Vertical, Suunto has possibly overtaken Polar (and possibly Coros). Now that’s just based on the quality of the product itself. Of course sales will tell a different story. Does anyone know how well the Suunto Vertical is selling world wide?

I think it’s selling great. Amazon apparently sold me a unit they didn’t even have – I pre-ordered the moment it was announced long before things got to items remaining count, let alone out of stock – and it wasn’t until I got through their retarded bots to a human rep an hour ago they copped out they are completely out of stock on orange Ti and the “delivers 05/17” and “shipping now” and all that jazz in the order status was just a bullcrap.

“Here’s a $35 gift certificate for your future orders at Amazon”

Even worse, I can’t cancel the stupid order there. Because you know, it’s shipping now!

They talk about Miami Minute, probably there should be Amazon Now defined as a period of time 24-48 hours or longer depending on support team to which the issue has been escalated.
