Ghost ftp for cross-country skiing? Never ever started an activity!

I noticed that I have an ftp for cross-country skiing at Garmin Connect. However, I have never recorded any cross-country skiing activity. How can i delete this ftp?

  • Same issue, brand new Fenix 8, shows a XC Ski FTP from November 03. Needless to say, I have never done any cross country skiing.

  • Hi Same problem,

    On April 8th 2024  i noticed a drop in FTP from 253 to 200 which corresponded with 2 short commutes on a bike recorded on my Fenix 6 Sapphire and the appearance of a ghost Cross Country Skiing activity (i live on a beach!)

    I have been unable to find any activity Calle cross country skiing in my data, i have tried to edit the data with out success I have now manually deleted the files which has had no effect.

    I have now manually uplated the FTP with the previous 255.

    I notice I am still getting ghost X country skiing events coinciding with my cycling efforts 

    at no point did i ever select this as an activity. Please could you help me as it drags my FTP and Watts/kg down

    All, if you see a Cross Country Skiing FTP without having any Cross Country Ski activities saved in your account, please reply with the following:

    1. In what country do you live?  Australia
    2. Do we have your permission to access and view your Garmin Connect account? Yes
    3. Please send us a copy of the Garmin Folder from your watch. 
    4. What model of phone do you use to run the Garmin Connect mobile app? Fenix 6 Sapphire and Edge 1030 plus for cycling 
  • It is a great shame that this bug still has’nt been solved. Maybe ask DCRainmaker for some help? Garmin is not listening to us.

  • Have had to buy me a new Forerunner 265 to get excess to this elite club. I'm not amused...

  • At this point I am 100% convinced that this is some kind of office entertainment for Garmin. I imagine them at the coffee machine - hehehe, have you seen how many we've got today? hehehe

    I love my Garmin, but this is total BS!

  • I’m new to Garmin having just purchased an Epix Pro and just done uploaded a ride from Zwift and also noticed that there is this ghost cross country skiing entry Garmin Connect my FTP page as well as a cycling one.  I have just switched from Apple to Garmin and honestly this doesn’t give me any confidence in the quality of the numbers that I am seeing.  Even more frustrated to see that this issue has been going on for so long. Is there no one at Garmin looking at this? 

  • Après toutes ces années ce n est toujours pas résolu Pensive

  • Wow!

    Complete disrespect from Garmin, or else mere incompetence.

    Maybe Garmin should recall all these products, or place a halt on all new development until the can "investigate" this little problem.

    What else can Garmin not fix? Which other Algorythms are "broken"?

    I dont really trust anything on Garmin connect to be correct.

  • So, the same is happening to me with my new forerunner 965.

    1. Portugal

    2. yes you can access

    3. To submit I need a code provided by garmin product support and I don't have one

    4. Forerunner 965

    I see Cycling FTP (have an Edge 1040) and cross-country skiing (that I never did), but I don't see running FTP.

    How to fix this??

    Thank you
