      @freeheeler I can show you some tracks of windsurfing
      Both water and wind are no friends with the baro sensor 😄

      I guess that’s why Suunto decided to shut it off for those kind of sports.

        Its all about power and whether you need to design a small FPGA that can process data. I don’t deal with watches but with hydraulic transducers and I have one nano second bit operation processing time. In the world of watches, things are different and your imagination quickly outruns budget.

          Exactly. Imagine two Suunto units sharing Baro data. One you leave at base camp and one you go for the peak. At the end you come to the peak and back, you stop, it sync Baro data from your activity AND from watch at base camp. Then you compare it all. Winds will NEVER match, and if you didn’t travel 100km, atmosphere region pretty much share similar pressure. That way you can have much more accurate shots at the real altitude. Wind or no wind.

            …and maybe because you will not do so high climbs in windsurfing… maybe jumps 😉

              @freeheeler True. It took a while until Suunto realised it though. Altitude was recorded for a long time in windsurf activities (it still is, but it’s not shown in SA)

              Now that I’m thinking about it, I’m not sure if this means storm alarm isn’t also working. That’s a metric I’m interested in during the activity

                I was just watching Ray’s in-depth review of the Fenix 7 and was surprised about the new SpeedPro activity.

                https://youtu.be/YGXNYjL1t00?t=730

                Dear Suunto, are you taking notes for future firmware features? 😇

                Additional note: Make it better then Garmin 😄

                “First test with the Fenix 7 in SpeedPro mode (=1 Hz)… No doppler fields visible in GPS results and the results differ just as much as any other Suunto of Garmin. They need to put some more effort in the software to make it suitable voor speedsurfing.”

                      Also I’d like to see TbT notifications that don’t cover the whole nav. screen.

                          @freeheeler weren’t there some rumors about suunto looking into nav screen? Maybe one day, maybe no longer for our present devices.

                            Would love to have more info like breadcrumb, compas, weather trend,… while activity in pause mode.

                            Would love to have more advanced weather forecast like Polar.

                            Compass screen during navigation like Traverse had ( i guess processing power should not be an issue or what…? On traverse was possible why not on s9p?)

                            When navigating click on poi on navigation screen to get more info about it)

                            ….

                                  😂 Suunto users are creative and find workarounds for several lacking features 😉

                                    Per my opinion,Suunto should correct steps&Vo2max accuracy,battery drain and to add brisk-walk as a sport mode 🙂

                                      @djordje-s or run walk, I’d loved that! It was even considered as s+ feature, but was probably less popular than e.g. burner.

                                        @dmytro Yes, Brisk/Speed/Run walking ( however it is called ) it is consumed by lot of people and I for me it is logical to be part of separate sports mode than some feature 🙂

                                          @djordje-s by run walk I mean the means to automatically mark the transition between walking and running. Similarly to how s+ sprint works. But I would be interested in a dedicated brisk walk activity too.

                                            The Wahoo Elemnt Rival watch has seamless integration for triathlon, so you basically start the activity and then it identifies where you switch between swim/bike/run. It even records and identifies the transition sections which I thought was pretty cool. Aside from that feature it’s regarded as a fairly basic GPS watch, although obviously aimed at triathletes

                                            Would be great if Suunto could develop something similar - I quite often do brick sessions for bike and run and would be nice to not have to worry about recording two separate workouts 👍
