      Same issue with Race 2. For 3 day it was ok. Then when starting skiing 4th day issue occurred. After watch restart it was ok. Then next day the same issue and again I had to restart watch for a fix. Hope someone from Suunto can reproduce/confirm issue and give outlook for a fix as we have winter time! (Good at least we have a workaround)

        Four days of skiing. The same problem, I had to restart the Watch everyday.

        t6, Ambit, Traverse, Spartan Sport WHR, Suunto 7 (2 month! then sold it!, loved the watch but UI was pointless),Suunto 9, Garmin Fenix 6pro, Suunto 9 Peak Ti (it‘s a beauty), Garmin Epix Gen2, Suunto Race Ti

        Core Brushed Steel (Most beautiful watch ever)

          My experience with Race 2 is not that bad. I had a streak of 5 skiing activities over around two weeks and all worked fine. Then the 6th activity didn’t work. I rebooted the watch and had two activities without a problem.
          However, I agree that if you want to make sure that the activity shows the #of runs and descent, your best bet is to reboot the watch before the activity. Btw. You can reboot ahead of time (e.g., before leaving home).

            Hi there,

            Same problem here with my Vertical.

            But last ski day, even rebooting wasn’t working…this is a bit annoying, i expect that suunto fix this bug soon.

              Interesting to hear if the latest Q4 sw release fixes these issues and watch restart would not be needed anymore.

                  Do we know if this will be early Q1 or late Q1? The latter would make a few of us skiers a bit disgruntled.

                    @Bartek-W no, we don’t know.
                    There is also the posiibility of a hotfix in between. No other details, than it is known and planned to be fixed.

                      @Egika Lets hope that we get hotfix at the early Feb as February is typical winter vacation month in Finland (where I live) and people are going to skiing during that time.

                        The new f/w update is out. My R2 was updated overnight.
                        No idea if the alpine skiing issue was resolved. To verify, we will need a few days of skiing.

                            @Stoke80 currently I am not sure if this was probably fixed with 2.50.26.
                            can anyone check please?

                            thank you!

                              @Egika Two Five Six activities without a problem (but this may mean nothing). I will keep trying (winter is just starting (😁 ))

                                  Same for me yesterday.
                                  It seems the issue has been solved with the latest update.

                                    Hi! So this issue isn’t solved yet?

                                    Tomorrow I’ll go skiing the first time with the watch. Do I need to pauze the watch when I’m in chair lift? Or is this going automatically or does it not matter? Maybe I’ll need to select a different sport.

                                    The trick is to reset the watch for 12 seconds before doing the activity?

                                      @Horizontal_2 Have you read the last 3 comments in this thread:
                                      All (and others) state that the issue has been solved with the latest update.
