        I’ll add another vote for rucking / weighted hiking or running

          not a new sport, but triathlon as a customizable mode

          and what about customizable multisports :
          duathlons like swim/run or bike/run or …
          triathlons like “any 3 sports combinations” 🙂
          Multisport is already a workaround but without quick and efficient transitions

          and what about a new way of using “other1” “other2” ? Like own user “others” naming (like tags). user would have the capacity to “name” its own new activiity type, displayed in SA with this new naming, but still officially an “other” activity (in term of fit/suunto types) ?

          I fully agree! A customisable triathlon mode and a swimrun mode, not just duathlon but multiple transitions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swimrun), would be great. Add in an ultrarun mode to track rest time and it is perfect.

                As winter is starting I definitely miss
                sledging

                I also know about some friends who keep missing this… It’s like ski Alpin for the metrics, but it’s annoying to mix those sports up and be not able to differentiate.

                  Just because you asked…
                  –> Caving 😁

                  As someone who went on his first-ever wild caving excursion this past weekend, I second a Caving sports mode! Tracking the activity using “unspecified sport” just felt a little unsatisfying 😉

                    Pool Swimming mode requires backlight to be on by default. Or at least to be able to remember last settings applied to the mode.
                    Having relatively small display, makes Suunto less suitable for water trainings. Low light under the water and small display ruin everything 😞

                      Dann leg dir nur 2 oder 3 Datenfelder aufs Display. Dann sind die groß genug.

                        Usually, during intensive fast swimming you have about 1 sec to check distance/swolf. I do it while flipping at the end of lap. All this under water with somewhat foggy goggles.
                        Turning on the backlight improves the readability but this settings option is disabled by default and I need to turn it on manually before the training. Sometimes I forget to set the backlight on and this ruins the training because I need to stop.
                        Remembering this option selection for the future training might make life easier.

                          @Tieutieu I admit that I only use my own ski touring mode. What are the automatic ski touring features of the native mode? Are sport modes documented somewhere?
