Sport Modes Short List
-
New Race S user here.
There doesn’t seem to be a way to add Sport Modes to the short list? I queried this with Suunto support and they replied “You can’t manually add sport modes directly to the Shortlist on the watch. However, you can create custom sport modes in the Suunto app”. So of the > 95 sport modes I need to manually go and recreate the ones I want based off some predefined list? Is that correct or am I missing something obvious here.
When I try to create a custom one I also seem to not be able to replicate the settings. For example I really want to use the Snorkeling Sport Mode, if I create a custom one based on the Snorkeling one that exists, I can’t seem to add a field for Depth. Or surface time? However these do exist on the default according to this - https://www.suunto.com/en-gb/Support/Product-support/suunto_race_s/suunto_race_s/recording-an-exercise/snorkeling-and-mermaiding/
So how do I get that exact same sport mode on my watch? I’ve gone back to Suunto support but thought I’d ask in here too.

@sntors
you add sports to the short list from the watch, simply selecting that activity type once.
Then it’s there forever
… but you can remove it from the app -
@sntors Before creating custom modes its worth mentioning that the sports you use more often get sorted automatically with the latest one being first in the list so say you use 4 sports theses 4 will be the first to show in the list. Only the first time you need to scroll longer till you find what you need.
