9 Peak Pro

I'm an avid cross-country skier and recently switched from a Suunto 9 Peak Pro to a Garmin Forerunner 970. The Forerunner is gorgeous. Finds my HR belt instantly, locks on GPS satellites instantly, etc. Never fails on me even at -20C when worn over the jacket. It's highly customizable with features

Suunto sports watches (and those from other manufacturers) don't require a phone connection during activity. Keep in mind that the Suunto 9PP doesn't have topographic maps, only breadcrumbs on a black background. This works quite conveniently as long as you're following a pre-planned and pre-loaded

I’ve got a 9PP and a FR955, which is very similar to the 255. The 9PP has much longer battery life when recording activities. Materials quality is higher (steel/titanium and sapphire vs plastic and gorilla glass). The 9PP is a bit smaller, though not lighter. I find the Suunto route planner much bet

The only real issue for me is the size, to be honest. I’ve also had a few bugs with the 9 Peak Pro that made me look into Garmin. Several times this year my watch wouldn’t sync with the app, and I had to restart it completely just to get it working again. I really like the Suunto app and the overall

Edit: Apologies, I missed that this was for the 9 Peak Pro. Many of the things they wrote about won't apply because 9 Peak Pro because it doesn't have offline maps and it's a older watch.

Wow, you did a very good research. I try to make it short: If price is not an option, you like the Garmin Connect (ecoystem) and you like a bigger watch, take the Garmin fenix. It costs more, but it has a software more mature. Sometimes it is a little confusing, for example understanding all the opt

with like everything when you wanna change, one rule applies here. change if you think it no longer meet your requirements, needs. that being said, spartan watch vs new suunto vertical/race/race S is quite a big jump for sure. i don't think its worth goin for peak pro, its still lacking maps and its

9 Baro is older, not worth it. 9 Peak Pro is old but fine, I still use one daily and it continue receiving updates and working fine even though it's not the last generation. Strava will be kinda ok as a health tracker for both Garmin and Suunto tracker. It doesn't care where the data come from. But

I’ve had something similar happen with my Suunto. If the strap pairs with your phone but not the watch, try unpairing it from the app/phone, restarting the watch, and then pairing again via Settings > Sensors > Pair HR Belt. Also, double-check the strap battery—even new ones can be low. If nothing w

Unless I’ve misunderstood what you’re asking, you can do this when you create the intervals in the app, by setting the warm-up period to end with a lap button press. You also don’t need to set any target intensity. By setting it up in this way you can do whatever you want in your warm-up for as long
