and maybe some Developers are athletes ? and maybe are they just developing what one ask them to develop ?

In Garmin multi-sport watch you can make sports mode from existing

in Suunto current ones, no , BUT, some Suunto’s developpers might be athletes, AND should obey to some managero_marketingos people (I guess) (OR follow big list of development changes order)

Well, in fact you can on Suuntos too in some way, as you can switch between sports modes on the fly
Of course no way to set transition time nor to see details in SA

Guys, when in the race the score goes for tenths of a second, there is no time to change either - you will lose…: (it is very uncomfortable.
In Winter triathlon there are chespionates of the world!
In the software it was possible to make the race itself from the mode Multisport, now not.
Movescount shows all stages of a multi-sport race. in SuuntoApp is not present.

@DRezvoff
Totally with you. My remarks were just to say that developers are not obviously the root cause of this “lack” of multisport in Suunto’s world.

DRezvoff

@Mff73 can be…
Want feedback and response

DRezvoff

Up…

Developers!
more than a year has passed, there are no changes! WINTER SOON, WINTER TRIATHLON! And nothing has changed - the winter triathlon mode cannot be done!.. :((((

I think I missed how to create a multisport mode did I oversee it in the manual AND in my SA sport mode setup?
Could you guys give me some assistance here?

@TELE-HO
maybe in MC

There is no way you can create a multisport mode.

The logic is simple. Multisport is multisport. Not a sport. Its a combination of multiple sports (activities) into one greater activity with their respective summaries and one generic one.

So you can just change from sport A to B, C, D, …Z as you like. As many changes back and forth or whatever as you like.

You can create Sport A for multisport and sport B for multisport and switch between them at demand.

@Mff73 no you cant

You are right, i didn’t read carefully : i thought about Triathlon (and not really multisport).

freeheeler

but with A3 it was possible with MC unless my mind does ~~not~~ trick me?

I’m just asking because I used to do few bike and hike combitours and maybe will do one or the other soonish… and of course it is convenient to have something like a shortcut to stop cycling and start hiking or running with one or 2 button press.

But as you know me, I can live with what we have

A Former User

@TELE-HO Yes, it was possible. Today is it impossible… A lot of users want this back. But this is by Suunto progress.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@mcindr many users is 8 votes for what?

The multisport works better on new suuntos.

@TELE-HO on ambits you had to create a profile for that! On spartans you don’t need Todo that.

Sorry guys what are we talking about here ?

Are you confused with triathlon or so ?

Just long press the upper button select the next sport and done. Repeat infinite times. No need to even customize.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@TELE-HO start your hike, long hold upper button , select cycling done. No need Todo anything more

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
thanks man, I guess this is what I was missing when I searched this afternoon and tried just before

A Former User

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Why was this repeat infinite, when only 8 users interested about it?

I had Ambit, multisport was very good made in this watch. All was configurable. Triathlon, Duathlon, what I want. In Suunto web is wrote by S9 baro multisport support, predefined multisport modes. I expected the same quality as before. It was mistake. There is only one predefined mode, not more modes (only triathlon). You are right. I can change sports manually. But did you tried it during race? Did you tried it after swimming 3,8 km in cold water?

And why I not use predefined modes? Why I need to see only few values which are for me Important. For example can you anything read on your watch during open water swimming? No and because this I need on screen only big time and distance, no more. The same for cycling for me are important informations about cadence, power… The same for running.

This is for me problem by all predefined modes. There is so much informations that are not useful for my training. It is necessary switch four times screen to find what I need. But it have solution. I made own modes where I have all Important in one screen. But for multisport is it now by Suunto impossible.

@mcindr
but you can use your customized modes and switch between them

A Former User

@TELE-HO I know, this I wrote. But it is not so much comfortable during race. It is better solution use my five years old Ambit2, where I have all configured as I need and I can change sports with one druck.

The pity here is that, in Android, the activities of the multisport are shown in SA as an activity without all the metrics of each type of sport. Is an activity with quite poor information, I think in iOS all the metrics are there. On the other hand when the multisport is uploaded to Strava you will have as activities as sports used and with all the metrics.
