Six screens are available to you:
— screen 1: main screen (current speed, the number of surfs / laps made since the start of the session, the distance traveled, the temperature, the time in stop / pause mode, or the chrono in walk mode, and the GPS signal quality indicator (green = good, orange = average, red = poor or non-existent), and your heart rate with colored heart rate zones
— screen 2: screen of the current session (heart rate with colored HR zones, data of the surf / lap in progress, the number of surfs / laps made since the start of the session)
— screen 3 (only for models > 64 Kb of memory): shows the same data as screen 2, but in graphic form, with the addition of the time (in 12/24 hour format) and the current speed (see descriptive image below for further explanation)
— screen 4: mapping screen (compatible models), with outline of the route of the session -> see below for more detailed explanations
— screen 5: screen of the best surfing / lap made, on the session and on all sessions combined (alternately)
— statistics screen: session and global statistics (total number of surfs / laps, total time and distance, average and max speed, average and max HR)
— end of session screens: displays a summary of the main data obtained during the session
The FIT file stores the following data:
▪ all standard data (distance, speeds, heart rate, calories, etc.) calculated by the watch firmware
— in the form of laps:
▪ each surf (Surf Foil activity) or lap (Pump Foil and E-Foil activity) with, as recorded data, the time, distance, average and max speed, average and max HR for each surf / lap
▪ for pump foil, e-foil and downwind foil activities, a lap is automatically recorded every 1000 meters traveled
— in the activity summary area:
▪ duration and distance of the best surf or lap
▪ average and max speed of the best surf or lap
▪ average and max HR of the best surf or lap
▪ best average speeds over 2 and 10 seconds
▪ the number of surfs (Surf foil) or laps (other activities) of the session
▪ number of pumps during the session (Pump Foiling and Downwind activities)
▪ rating of your session (ranking session)
Note:
▪ all the options set in the menu are permanently saved into the watch so, no need to configure them each time you launch the application
▪ all the metrics are calculated and saved separately for each kind of activities offered by the app.That means that if you change activities within the app, you will get and collect different data on the screen
▪ foil-type activities do not yet exist in the nomenclature of FIT activities, so it is impossible to record a Pump Foil-type activity, for example. Thus, each session will therefore be recorded as a surfing type activity (closest type of activity), the label of the activity, on the other hand, will correspond to the type of activity selected. The day these types of activities will be included in the FIT nomenclature (if they ever are), I will modify the type of activity accordingly
Note regarding models with semi-octagonal screen (Instinct 2, 2S and Descent G1:
due to their lower amount of memory, and their monochrome screen truncated by the physical circle, the application has the following differences compared to other models:
▪ no display of weather forecasts (but they nevertheless exist in the application when retrieving weather data)
▪ no display of global statistics
▪ no ability to assign scores/stats
▪ no second end of session screen
Apart from these differences, all the other functionalities are strictly identical to the other models.
Considering the time spent on its development and maintenance, this application is currently priced at 12USD.

Despite all the care taken with this application, and depending on the technical changes made to the development SDK by Garmin, as well as possible malfunctions linked to the firmware of each model (bugs introduced by Garmin, installation of beta versions on your watch, etc.), the application may not behave as expected. Consequently, rather than publishing bad comments on the site, please contact me directly by e-mail to inform me of the problem, and I'll do what's necessary to rectify it as soon as possible.
