I'm experiencing some significant inaccuracies with the surf activity app on my Fenix 7S.
I primarily use my watch for surfing, but the wave detection is consistently off. I've noticed a few issues:
- False positives: The watch frequently records "waves" when I'm just paddling or waiting for a set.
- Extended wave duration: After I've finished a wave, the app often continues to register it for an additional 20-30 seconds, leading to inflated wave counts and durations.
These inaccuracies make the surf tracking data essentially unusable for understanding my sessions. I've tried to ensure the watch is snug on my wrist, but the issues persist.
Has anyone else encountered similar problems with their Fenix 7S or other Garmin watches while surfing? Are there any specific settings or tips I might be missing to improve the accuracy of wave detection?
Garmin, please take a look into this. I believe you just need to check the app, and not the OS.
