Sorry I don’t know how documentation or user guides are updated ; with every release the only official communication we have is release notes on suunto’s website.
As far as I know, Joaquin Perez videos are the most complete to describe new features, but only available in spanish. -
@Tieutieu yeah I’ve scoured the website and can’t anything more than the release notes which have 3 bullets that make very little sense to me.
Tempted to try it and see what’s going on with a basic interval session and report back. -
@matthinsh I’m pretty sure nothing changed about interval session/structured workouts, in terms of creation or use in watch. The update seems focused on the app analysis afterwards
-
@duffman19 I did a comparison of the height diagramms from a run in 2024 with one towday. The rose one is the new diagramm. It looks smoother an more correct to the real terrain for me.
E.g. this drop in the blue doesn’t exist in real. Looks good

Will see how the S+ Variometer reacts now

ich hätte gern bei RUNNING BASIC immer die HÖhenmeter dabei und die Rundenlaps in GROSS ( nicht diese mini liste) und die gesamte Durchschnitts pace …

Anyone knows what is this field means - grd_pct?
It appears only at recent runs

@Ecki-D. should be gradient percentage. Incline in percent
-
@sustah sleep/HRV is not a watch but an iOS Suunto App problem, see this thread/post for a workaround.

@Ecki-D. Where did you get this graph? Could not find it in the app…

@Inge-Nallsson said in Suunto 2.50.26 – Q4 2025 Release Notes:
On my map (at least in the local area) the cycleways must be defined as footpaths then, because they have the same short dashes as all the small footpaths and they disappear above 200m.
This is probably correct. I believe the path must be specifically tagged as a “Cycle Path” or “Cycle & Foot Path” in OSM to be recognized as such on the Suunto watch maps (shown as a thin, solid, magenta-ish color, depending on map theme). There are a ton of different tags and variables that can be assigned to paths. Whether they are labelled correctly in your area depends on whether an OSM mapper has taken the time to do so.
@Inge-Nallsson said in Suunto 2.50.26 – Q4 2025 Release Notes:
Looking at the pictures posted by OutdoorMan in https://forum.suunto.com/post/182565 the vertical path left of the central marker dot clearly is a road (longer dashes as explained to me by sky-runner) in contrast to the more dotted footpaths to the right.
The path with the longer, thicker dashes is a “Track / Land-Access Road.” These are things like fire roads and forestry service roads. Suunto treats these the same as cycle paths in that they disappear at the same zoom level (above 500m).

@Mads-Hintz-Madsen it seems the other watches got now the „blessings“ of the new resources algorithm of the Vertical 2/Race 2, too. Please read here more https://forum.suunto.com/topic/14200/vertical-2-resources?_=1767965599570
-
@VoiGAS Thats from Runalyze.com, you get loads of data there and it can sync the historic data from suunto too.
-
@jjpaz I compared a known track, seems that my SR2 measures approximately 3.8% less distance than a Garmin Oregon GPS device (and also that amount less compared to a track generated based on OSM maps using Garmin BaseCamp). Will check that with some older tracks as well (when I find the time
) -
@Calando You can check the dedicated thread to that topic here: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/14375/race-2-gps-and-distance-accuracy-vs-previous-suunto-models

Have any of you already experienced the new OHR algorithm?
I only did a single run, but the results were far from impressive.
I did a set of intervals, and the HR got stuck at high value both during the recovery and during the cool down section of my session.
It was sad, because the start was promising, without any spike (differently from the previous algorithm)
I even walked in the cool down phase, to let my HR go down, but none of this was read by the watch
-
@Lorenzo-Pintore Même constat mais peut-être est-ce dû au froid ? De toute façon, l’essentiel pour moi est que le pouls au repos soit fidèle et ça semble être le cas … car pour le sport j’ai toujours une ceinture thoracique. Après si il n’y a pas d’amélioration, je comprends mal la communication de Suunto. Ils doivent bien tester leurs produits non ?
-
Thanks, I will try this workaround… but I did not have this problem until 2.50.26 update… and I did not change anything in app.
-
@Dieter1960 It may be cause by the cold: temperatures were around 3°C during that run. I’ll try on the treadmill to verify this.
-
@Lorenzo-Pintore, I did a short run and the registered HR was much more compliant with my feelings than previously. I’ll test during the weekend and compare with a belt during an indoor cycling session.
