What sport mode is missing from our watches in your opinion?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Rayfox isnt track and field there ?

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Yes but the only parameters recorded are pulse and temperature and not the usual running parameters

[Tieutieu]

More than “new sports” I’d rather have this :

• actual sports mode debug : resort SKI for example => the total distance (at least this winter) was counting uphills.
• Unless I’m Wrong, when creating a new custom sport, I’d like that it would keep “specifications” of the original sport mode. For example => ski touring, the native sport mode has automatismes that disappear when I create my sport mode based on it.
• I’d love to see functions that need guides to be implemented in native sport modes (NGP for instance, current average slope…) / have new fields available for customisation
• I’m also 100% with “rename others” or “create and name personnal sports modes”

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Before anything new there is an issue that needs to be resolved
Since the last update there is a problem with swimming in open water. The watch and the app, on the iPhone, show half the distance. I would be happy to provide a detailed email

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I only miss E-Bike or some toggle in the cycling/app saying this is done with e-bike

[Josaiplu]

I think I miss run track and e-bike mode (and customization of triathlon mode )

[wmichi]

• E-Bike
• E-MTB
• Core training (strength training with body weight)

[Ars Vitae]

As far as I’m concerned, there are already a fair number of multiple sports here. Rather, I would like to see some of the existing ones (such as swimming) improved. But if we’re already talking about something missing, my girlfriend asked me if there is a special mode for sex

[enriqueescoms]

@Ars-Vitae Sex should be an art, not a sport.

[Eddy De Backer]

I miss E-Bike

@Danny-poleg Can you please keep the scope ?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

Hey hi , can you please keep the scope of this discussion to some sport mode you might be missing ? up to there please.

[Ze Stuart]

@isazi seconded. I’d like to be able to tag routes I’ve completed, across different scales, for both lead/top/auto-belay and bouldering, along with outcomes.

[mfreire]

@Tieutieu Nailed it

@Patrick-Löffler-0 said in What sport mode is missing from our watches in your opinion?:

And I would very much appreciate a breath work profile or +app. With guided breathing patterns. For example box breathing (4 sek in, 4 sek hold, 4 sek out, 4 sek hold,…) or Relax (8 sek in and 8 sek out)…

Nice idea, I like it. It could as well be implemented as an S+ app with a gentle metronome for 4x4 or 8x2.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I would vote for rucking with weight to bin them differently from hikes, runs, walking.

Also +1 for e-biking. Don’t currently do this but I see it happening for me in the near future. Also a way to bin this from other types of biking.

[Arnaud Lclr]

Thanks for that question !

• E-Bike
• And a proper mutlisport mode (I’m thinking mainly of triathlons)

My other sports are all covered.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos lots of sport modes already, very happy so far. If I could improve something this would be to have easily accessible help info (maybe in-watch?) about how sport modes are designed to be used. Don’t get me wrong, some sports are straightforward, but some others would benefit from it, IMHO. For instance:

• What’s the difference between “Mountain biking - Trail” and “Mountain biking - downhill”?
• How to use “Indoor climbing”? And “orienteering”?
• What’s the difference between “Canoeing” and “Kayaking”?
• And between “Mermaiding” and “Snorkeling”?

Message here is, sports modes have very valuable, thoughtful features and metrics inherent to them, so imagine that we could read a quick, contextual description in the watch itself when selecting the mode… wouldn’t that be great? Alternatively, the Suunto App could come with “embedded” insights on how to use the different sport modes available in the watch.

Ok now you can tell me RTFM!

Cheers!
