      Usually, during intensive fast swimming you have about 1 sec to check distance/swolf. I do it while flipping at the end of lap. All this under water with somewhat foggy goggles.
      Turning on the backlight improves the readability but this settings option is disabled by default and I need to turn it on manually before the training. Sometimes I forget to set the backlight on and this ruins the training because I need to stop.
      Remembering this option selection for the future training might make life easier.

        @Tieutieu I admit that I only use my own ski touring mode. What are the automatic ski touring features of the native mode? Are sport modes documented somewhere?

                              No specific sport or other 6 is the option to track activities with the kick bike. 🫣

                              The main thing is that yoga and Pilates are available twice, and the category “other” from 1 to 6 without the option to rename. 😳

                                I would very much like to see an Adventure Racing mode compliant with ARWS rules added. It would be a great help to those of us who participate in Adventure Racing.

                                  Stairmaster mode has been mentioned previously but afaik is still not there.
                                  It would be great to have all that ascent/climbing tracked.

                                    I actually never read anything about canicross on this forum, I regularly run with my dog ​​and there is no specific sport mode for that.

                                      @Jacobus I guess people use trail running for instance, and could use a tag for their best friend !?

                                        We have several types of disciplines “running”, “cycling” (…) etc. why can’t we have several types of “pool swimming”?
                                        My proposal is to divide swimming into: “Recreational pool swimming” and “Sports pool swimming”.

                                        Justification.
                                        After the last two updates (sorry for being honest) Suunto can’t handle the new swimming algorithm.
                                        So let’s leave the old algorithm for sports training, and add the last one (new) for recreational swimmers.

                                          @Artus-Diver afaik the last update should have solved the issues with swimming. Is that no ?

                                            Unfortunately, no.
                                            There is a correlation between people who train sports and those who swim recreationally.
                                            I train sports and I think that S9B swimming and early algorithms in SV count the best.

                                            The latest algorithm cannot reconcile these. I wrote about this in other posts.
