Subject: RE: kaburns1214 Mentor Group - CLOSEDHey guys, posted this on the gear forum but Kelly asked me to post here. Hope some of you find it useful: ------------------------------------ OK everyone, just tried the poolmate tonight. Couple of things:
Strengths: - It is pretty cool that it tracks laps, yards, stroke count, time per set, etc (I lost track between 4 & 5 laps on a 300, I know SAD) - it worked perfectly on freestyle - I like that it tracks without pressing buttons or thinking about it (I am a dork and lost track all the time)
Weakness: - Hard to read and small font (have to look real hard or take goggles off), which sucks when you are doing sets on time and don't need to be trying to read a watch while catching your breath - DOES NOT TRACK kick only sets (of which I did a total of 600) and timed out (so started a new set when I was done) - Was off by 50 on my 400 backstroke
I can deal with all the weaknesses except tracking the kicking. Anyone have thoughts on this one? Am I wrong? I want it to track my entire workout, not part of it. |
