Best app ever!
This SpeedCoach Mobile is the coolest thing! The ability to take your speedcoach with you wherever you row, and use it in whatever you row (or paddle) without having to worry about whether the boat is wired and has a functional impeller is an amazing freedom. The cost is completely worth it, especially considering that the alternative device (the conventional wired Speedcoach) costs 3 times as much and doesnt even include the wiring. The data is impressively accurate. As a tip for other users who may not have read the User Guide, and want a more accurate real time split, there is a speed smoothing window that can be adjusted to compensate for GPS errors. The larger the window (up to 130meters) the less fluctuation in speeds. Default is 80meters. Id also like to point out the display is so much better than the old NK speedcoaches, especially when you row in the dark at 5am like I do! One more thing: I love being able to see my workouts graphed, mapped and analyzed on Facebook, and I like the fact that I have all my practices in one place to compare.
