Still no real windsurfing support
-
Update after update, still no Max Nautical Speed and other windsurfing speed data.
Why do you think most windsurfers buy Coros watches?
On the watch, we need at least:
2 s max speed,
avg. speed over 10 s and 100 mThe gps-speedsurfing site lists all requirements for a valid gps watch and it should be easy for Suunto to implement them.
-
I tried to create a Suunto Plus App for this purpose, but I ran into memory issues on the V1.
Apparently the memory is very limited on the watches which makes it challenging to store a lot of data.
I suppose it would run without any issues If only the 2s max, 10s and 100m categories have to be calculated. But the GP3S categories also include 1Nm, and 1h etc…Unfortunately I don’t have a lot of time right now to find another way.

Do you also have issues with custom apps disapearing from the watch when sync with phone is made ?We definitely need a decent windsurfing / foiling / kitesurfing app… !
-
@Benjamin-Weppe if you install the app directly on the watch without publishing it to the store, it will be deleted on the next sync.

@surfboomerang done !
I have published a Wingfoil app with 2sec 5 sec 20 sec Vmax and flying time percent age.
It’s called Wingfoil BZH -
@galerna done ! Check out the store
