      Pool Swimming mode requires backlight to be on by default. Or at least to be able to remember last settings applied to the mode.
      Having relatively small display, makes Suunto less suitable for water trainings. Low light under the water and small display ruin everything 😞

        Dann leg dir nur 2 oder 3 Datenfelder aufs Display. Dann sind die groß genug.

          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.

                                            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.
