Kitesurf jumps live on your wrist: KiteJump detects your jumps, measures airtime and estimates jump height – no extra hardware, just your watch.
What it does
- Jump detection with the watch's own motion sensors (accelerometer and gyroscope at 100 Hz), tuned on more than 3,000 reference jumps from a dedicated kite sensor.
- Live on the watch: height and airtime of your last jump, highest jump and jump count.
- Records your session as a normal Garmin activity (GPS track, distance, jumps), with estimated calories and training load even without heart rate – shown in Garmin Connect.
- Uploads straight from the watch to the free KiteJump logbook at kitejump.de (via the Garmin Connect app on your phone): every jump on the map and in 3D, records, spots with leaderboards, friends. Pair once with a code shown on the watch. Anything that can't be sent right away stays on the watch and goes out later.
- Optional KiteJump sensor (GNSS or RTK, via Bluetooth): jump height measured instead of estimated, down to a few centimetres with RTK, plus height trace and jump curve on the watch. The sensor is being prepared for the 2027 season; free pre-order at kitejump.de.
- Button controls, touch is off: wet fingers and water don't trigger anything.
Supported watches: Forerunner 170, 255, 265, 570, 955, 965 and 970 (incl. Music, S and size variants). Tested on the water with the Forerunner 955.
Early version: without the sensor, detection and height are estimates and still being tuned on the water. Feedback welcome!

Your sessions now upload to kitejump.de, and the pairing screen shows kitejump.de. All screens checked on every supported watch: nothing is cut off at the round edge any more, texts adapt to the screen size. Many smaller fixes.
