Hello guys,
I got a new Garmin Swim 2, firmware: 2.30
And found some very important things are missing in Pool Swimming profile:
1. Stroke Rate Per Minute field is not available during swimming session.
Stroke Rate is how many strokes per minute you do for an inverval or lap.
Also a new column with that number in Intervals table in Garmin connect will be very usefull.
That number is very important for the advanced swimmers and will be highly appreciated and i think not hard to be added as field - it is easy calculation.
2. HR alarm if you reach a HR zone
Bugs:
1. I found strokes per lenth are counted wrong, the device adds 2-3 more per length. I tested (counted) it in 50m pool.
2. Backstroke in most cases is displayed as Breaststroke.
3. Butterfly is displayed as Freestyle, especially if you not sprinting (not very high stroke rate).
