Yea, saw that thread. If it shows up, great. I don’t care whether it’s watch based or mobile app based. And frankly, on the Ambit, I can even get by with watch and web based w/ sync if I have to knowing I can manually do a poi or two if necessary. I sold my Spartan and went back to an A3P until this all shakes out. And I’ve got time to wait. Winter now here and I’ve spent the last 3 months on my keister recovering from a backcountry adventure gone bad anyway. We’ll see what spring has to offer from Suunto and my ankle and toes

@chrish Yeah, use cases vary, that’s why it’s complex and difficult to design/develop some features. Even with the most versatile solution there can be exceptions when a solution isn’t suitable for some.
Take care

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos So is that a definitive answer that Ambit3 users will never be able to use the Suunto App for route creation/sending to the watch? And that once the last movescount apk is no longer compatible with my mobile device I will only be able to send routes from a PC to my watch?

@chrish “Gone bad” without permanent injury, I hope.

@Fenr1r
Ha! Thanks. Not to get off topic to bad. But…

Permanent injury to my pride. Temporary injury to me. Annual solo backpacking trip out West. Pushing too hard in an unfamiliar environment. Pretty severe ankle sprain, bruised toes (nothing the runner types here aren’t used to), and a mild case of rhabdomyolysis that freaked me out.

2020 revenge trip in the planning stage

@chrish Also OT: very familiar with chronic pride damage but had not heard of rhabdomyolysis - nasty. And thanks to Wikipedia, I’ll be avoiding darker beers for a while. Which part of out West will feel the wrath of your other ankle (& toes) next year, if I may ask? Must be special if it deserves a second ~~kicking~~ trek.

@Fenr1r
Sierras. And actually 2020 will be a third trip. Second revenge. First 2018 trip shutdown by cold temps there and a hurricane back East that drove me home for work before airports closed (trip window was too short). 2019 injury half way thru my 4 day hike.

But I’ve got 10 years worth of Sierra bucket list locations stacked up. No shortage of places to backpack there.

@chrish Very nice part of the world. Spent an excellent week looping east of Yosemite last fall. Nothing but sun and I failed to injure myself for once. Enjoy Vengeance 2.
