Description
Counts your bodyboard waves automatically, prone or drop-knee. Press START, kick out, forget the watch.
I'm Philipp, a Baltic surfer and the dev behind BreakFinder.
Get started in 4 steps
1. Install the app.
2. Sync your watch in Garmin Connect until the app is on it. Stuck at "Queued"? Sync again.
3. Create a free account at breakfinder.surf/pair. It shows your 6-digit code.
4. Open the app on your watch, press START and enter the code.
Made for bodyboarding
The detector is tuned for the slower, lower take-off of a bodyboard, so mushy shorebreak and steep drops both count.
What it records
- Wave count, live on the watch
- Drop-in speed and top speed
- Ride time and your longest ride
- Distance, GPS track, heart rate and training zones
- Three modes: Beginner, Standard and Advanced. Pick one before you paddle out.
- Take-Off Spot compass that points back to where you caught your best waves
On the water
- The live screen shows one big number, your waves, over water that rises as the session goes on. Two gauges on the bezel and your last ride sit around it.
- After each wave a card shows its time and top speed.
- PAUSED, GPS LOST and LOW BATTERY are spelled out on the screen.
- The summary after the session has three pages.
- AMOLED rounds, fenix and Forerunner screens and the square Venu Sq each get their own layout.
Your log
The watch records offline. After the next sync the session shows up in the BreakFinder app and on breakfinder.surf, with every wave on the map.
Ending a session
Press START, then press START again within 3 seconds and pick Save.
Good to know
The free account is what moves your sessions from the watch into your log. Free to start, optional premium.
