Stroke Rate

The stroke rate is a training parameter that is relevant in almost every training session. The PaddlePulse gives you your current frequency every second and saves it on your watch for later evaluation.

Power

Do you have something on the rudder? Is there an oncoming current? Or is there a strong headwind? As long as you keep an eye on your power, you don’t have to worry about any of this! Because you know that your power has remained constant. Even savings on the wave can finally be quantified.

This makes your training progress evident, as improvements are reflected in a higher average power!

Boat Roll

Strong paddle strokes often cause the boat to roll more. However, the less the boat rolls, the lower the water resistance. Stabilize your hip movements and observe the effect with your PaddlePulse Sensor!

Boat Pitch

Boat pitching disturbs the flow of your boat and significantly increases water resistance. A reduction in pitching can be achieved by using a long stroke with an even distribution of force. Optimize your strokes and watch your boat flow!

Propulsion and V-diff

Propulsion, measured in meters per stroke, shows you exactly how much ground you cover with every single hit. In addition, the PaddlePulse tracks the speed fluctuation between the power phase and the glide phase (V-diff). Optimize the interplay of propulsion, boat run, and stroke rate to be the first one across the finish line.

Training with the PaddlePulse Sensor

Training Analysis

After your workout, you can use graphs and averages to analyse your metrics in detail. Check your stroke rate while paddling Ga1, track the number of strokes you take and analyse your boat’s movements.

Can you improve on last session's performance?

Lap-Based Values

For intervals or Ga2 sessions in particular, it is interesting to see how power, stroke-rate or boat movements develop from section to section. Lap-based average values are available for all parameters. Find out for yourself at what point your performance decreased or whether you were able to improve on the last set.

Recognize Connections

Would you like to know how your heart rate develops when you increase your power? Or whether you can be faster with the same performance by going smoother? That’s no problem either! The data is seamlessly integrated into the app that comes with the sport watch, so the graphs can be easily overlaid.
