Strava Live Segments Suunto+ guide not available on Race S! Really?
-
I thought Suunto Race S would be a perfect watch to switch back to Suunto. I must admit I like almost everything about the watch so far.
But I spent probably 15 minutes looking to enable Strava Live Segments on the watch and it seems that Strava Segments Suunto+ guide is simply unavailable on Race S. According to https://www.suunto.com/en-us/sports/News-Articles-container-page/chase-strava-segments-with-suunto/ Live Segments is only compatible with Vertical, 9 Baro, 9 Peak, and 9 Peak Pro. That seems extremely odd to me! Why wouldn’t it be supported on Race and Race S?
Unfortunately, Strava Live Segments is a really must have feature for me! I use this feature every week on my Garmin watch and racing segments is a huge motivator for me, and honestly a perfect way to compare my performance on variable terrain where other methods don’t work as well.
Sorry, but without this feature I have to return the watch!
Is there anything that I am missing? What was the reason for not including it?

OK, this was probably something I misunderstood. I was looking for the SuuntoPlus guide in the store, and it wasn’t there. But once I connected with Strava and forced the sync, the guide has popped up in the Suunto App.
Now, another issue is that only a small random subset of segments has synced - 20 segments as I can tell. I have more than 60 segments starred on Strava.

@sky-runner you are right, this guide is not something that you can install, it is something that is there if you have Strava Premium and starred segments, no way to manually install it.
As for the amount of segments that can be stored, not sure, there is probably a limit but I am not aware of the number.
