      I had this problem, but could not re-create it since Dec 15. I had six alpine skiing activities since, three or four XC skiing, a bunch (almost every day) indoor exercises, and a walk.
      At the end of every alpine skiing I check for the problem (to send the logs, potentially), but it did not happen again.

        Hi. Same problem here with my brand new Race S.

        Dunno if some previous software versions used to work since I had a Garmin before.

        Really annoying, the watch is of no use for my ski week.

          @ChanOJ Have you tried restart before starting activity, by holding upper button for 12 seconds?

            Hi,
            Have the same problem with my Race. Any chance there is a update that will repair this? It’s a bit annoying to restart the watch every time before the skiing…

            Thank!

              Update:
              I’ve been snowboarding, when I restarted the watch, all went well. Then I started a new activity and the problem occurred again. Guess I have to restart every time before activity…

                Same problem for my Race 2. I did restart the watch and it works … for the moment.

                Waiting for a firmware update.

                  I had the problem again (first time in two weeks). It is possible that occurred because I had two alpine skiing activities consecutively (one of those by mistake, but it does not matter).
                  @Egika I sent the logs to Suunto from the SA. Please let me know what I need to do for you to be able to see (find) them.
                  Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to send them right away (about 1.5 h after the end of the activity), but I hope that the problem is included.

                    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).
