Viewing Your Ski Runs
Your device records the details of each skiing or snowboarding
run using the auto run feature. This feature is turned on by
default for downhill skiing and snowboarding. It automatically
records new ski runs based on your movement. The timer
pauses when you stop moving downhill and when you are on a
chairlift. The timer remains paused during the chairlift ride. You
can start moving downhill to restart the timer. You can view run
details from the paused screen or while the timer is running.

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. Swolf is a measurement of swimming efficiency and, like
golf, a lower score is better.
