Viewing Your Ski Runs

between activities and continue to view your total time and

distance. For example, you can switch from biking to running

default triathlon activity set up for a standard triathlon.

Swimming

NOTICE

The device is intended for surface swimming. Scuba diving with

the device may damage the product and will void the warranty.

NOTE: The device cannot record wrist heart rate data while

swimming.

Swim Terminology

Length: One trip down the pool.

Interval: One or more consecutive lengths. A new interval starts

after a rest.

Stroke: A stroke is counted every time your arm wearing the

device completes a full cycle.

Swolf: Your swolf score is the sum of the time for one pool

length and the number of strokes for that length. For

example, 30 seconds plus 15 strokes equals a swolf score of

45. For open water swimming, swolf is calculated over 25

meters. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and,

like golf, a lower score is better.

Stroke Types

Stroke type identification is available only for pool swimming.

Your stroke type is identified at the end of a length. Stroke types

appear when you are viewing interval history. You can also

select stroke type as a custom data field (Customizing the Data

Screens, page 23).

Free Freestyle

Breast Breaststroke
