Do you have any plans on adding some new activities for the following?

windsurfing, hockey, hockey referee

If not, which existing activities would closely be related to these three?

  • windsurfing, hockey, hockey referee

    You can add custom activities yourself, directly on the watch. Otherwise you can record any activity with any other available one that offers features you'd expect at your type of activity. It makes no difference, if you are concerned for example about the Calories or Intensity Minutes calculation. Ony the heart rate and the HR Variability are needed for those. The selected type of activity plays no role.

    You can also change the type of the activity to the desired one later in Garmin Connect, if the one you need is not available on your watch.

    Personally I'd suggest the following substitutions at Instinct (if you do not create your own custom activity profiles):

    • windsurfing - SUP
    • hockey, hockey referee - Cardio (indoors), or perhaps Cycling, Run, or Walk for outdoor activities, if you wish to have also the GPS tracking enabled

    In Garmin Connect you can then change the types to Wind/Kite Surfing (for your windsurfing), and to Ice Skating (for your hockey / referee activities). 

    Do you have any plans on adding some new activities for the following?

    BTW, you speak to the user forum here, not to Garmin. If you need to hear from Garmin, it is better contacting them directly (phone, chat, email contacts listed at http://support.garmin.com
