First experiences with PODs...

[lobi]

Hi, there!

Who has got first experiences with the new t6 PODs and would like to let us know?

According to Suunto´s homepage there will be a cooperation between Suunto and the FIS. The world´s best cross-country-skiers will wear the t6 and data will be transmitted online and "on(TV)screen - including speed and distance data - a hint for another upcoming POD - "skispeedPOD"??

How could that work - via radar as the RDS from ciclosport?

greetings

The "t" in t6 (if you don't want to get too technical) stands for "training". It actually refers to the time interval between two heartbeats, or EPOC. Measured to the millisecond, this interval allows you (using the included PC software) to assess your current fitness, set a proper training load, measure your actual fitness gain over time, and achieve your overall fitness goals.

Really amazing - this new technology!

The footpod works right out of the package. After "deflorating" my t6 (new speed/distance mode after pairing with POD visible) I went for my first 8,56 km with no problems at all - especially the AUTOLAP function is worth mentioning (a lap time each kilometer - that´s what I have set it)

Great job, Suunto!

I've been using my POD 10 times now and it is a great tool - no doubt. But four times it suddenly lost the contact to the watch after 2 miles. The contact was not fully recovered and thus when I got back from my run the watch was missing 3 out of 6 miles.

It seems like the connection is vunerable to lap times. It has happend just after I've pushed the lap button.

Even though I've started with a PAIR and then CONNECT the connection was still lost.

When it works it is great and precise - more than 99% when calibrated

Anybody else experienced connection problems?
