WakeTrack is the first dedicated wakeboarding activity app for Garmin watches — built for cable parks and boat sessions. AUTOMATIC JUMP DETECTION Using your watch's accelerometer, WakeTrack detects jumps automatically — no button pressing. Each jump logs air time, estimated height, horizontal distance and rotation, and is pinned to the spot you took off on the map. Detection is tuned for cable riding, where the handle stays loaded through the whole jump, so arm swings and board chatter don't count. You stay in control: choose how the watch buzzes on a jump (or turn it off), pick a sensitivity, or switch jump tracking off entirely. Every session also reports how many jumps were nearly counted and why they were skipped, so sensitivity can be tuned from real riding, not guesswork. THREE RIDING MODES • Cable Circular — automatic laps from your actual turning around the loop, any direction, any number of towers • Cable 2-Tower — automatic laps from the heading reversal at each end tower • Boat — manual laps with a button press TOUCH LOCK FOR WET HANDS The moment you start riding, the screen ignores taps and swipes so spray and water can't change pages or trigger anything. The buttons keep working, the stop menu is always one press away, and the watch's own swipe-down lock behaves normally. A stricter lock that switches the touchscreen off completely is available from the stop menu. REAL-TIME DATA Page 1: Clock, 5-second delayed speed, current-ride and total distance, current-ride and total laps, heart rate, jump count Page 2: Last jump vs session best — air time, height, distance, spin — plus heart rate and zone Page 3: Session stats — best spin, riding time vs dock time, top speed, total spins Page 4: Info — large clock, location, hourly forecast (wind direction and speed, rain %, cloud % where your watch supports it), date, temperature, heart rate, notifications Page 5: Goals — the tricks you set yourself on waketrack.app, ticked off on the water Speed is shown with a 5-second delay so you can check your approach speed after landing, not while riding. Heart rate is only recorded while the watch is actually on your wrist — take it off at the dock and the reading stops instead of drifting. RIDE EFFORT WakeTrack measures your park's real cable speed each session and scores every second spent cutting above it or losing tension below it, plus crash detection from GPS — a fall stops you in one second, letting go at the dock doesn't. SETTINGS (Garmin Connect → WakeTrack) • Buzz on jump — Off, Single, Double • Buzz on lap • Track jumps on/off • Jump sensitivity — Strict, Standard, High • Gyroscope for spin measurement — opt-in on watches that have one; others estimate spins and say so WAKETRACK.APP Rides upload automatically to waketrack.app — full GPS track, every jump on the map, laps, effort and progress — and keep retrying later if you're out of range at the park. Nothing is lost to a bad connection. GARMIN ECOSYSTEM Recorded as a native Wakeboarding activity — integrated with Garmin Connect, Body Battery, Training Effect and calories. Custom FIT fields export jumps, air time, spins, top speed and laps to your activity file. COMPATIBLE WITH Venu X1, Venu 4, Venu 3/3S, Venu 2/2S/2 Plus, Venu Sq 2 Music, Fenix 7/7S/7X/7 Pro, Fenix 8 and Fenix E, epix 2/Pro, Forerunner 165/255/265/570/965/970, Instinct 2/2S/2X, Instinct 3 and Crossover, Enduro 3, MARQ 2. Instinct 2/2S/2X run a lean build: laps, jumps, effort and upload in full; the forecast page, previous-session review and summary map are left out to fit that watch's memory.

V2.9 — Fixes for Instinct and detailed jump metrics update V2.7 — Touch lock, Instinct and Venu fixes, honest heart rate TOUCH LOCK WHILE RIDING As soon as you're moving, taps and swipes are ignored — spray can no longer flip pages, open menus or cut a phantom lap in boat mode. Buttons still work; the stop menu is one press away and hands touch back for Save. The watch's own swipe-down lock also behaves normally now: the app was quietly capturing that gesture, which is why the lock felt laggy. A stricter lock that turns the touchscreen off entirely is in the stop menu. INSTINCT 2 / 2S / 2X — CRASH ON SAVE FIXED These watches were running out of memory at the moment you pressed Save ("IQ!") — every time. They now get a lean build: laps, jumps, effort and upload are untouched; the forecast page, previous-session review and summary map are left out to make room. Turning on the gyroscope setting also crashed them — the Instinct 2 has no gyroscope, so the app now says GYRO N/A and estimates spins instead. VENU 2 / 2S / 2 PLUS / SQ 2 — FORECAST PAGE AND RIDE START Opening the forecast page crashed these watches (a weather field their software doesn't provide); the Venu Sq 2 also crashed the instant a ride started (no tone generator for the start beep). Both fixed. The cloud % column shows "-" on these watches. HEART RATE ONLY COUNTS ON YOUR WRIST Take the watch off at the dock and the optical sensor keeps emitting numbers. Those no longer show, and no longer pollute your ride's average and max — the app checks the watch is actually being worn. FASTER TO START The ride-type menu appears instantly. A ride queued for upload used to be processed before the menu was drawn, which could feel like a frozen or locked screen. QUIETER MID-RIDE A phone settings sync no longer touches sensors or storage while you ride; it applies at your next ride start. The screen stops redrawing while you sit at the dock. Verified in the simulator on Venu X1, Venu 2, Venu Sq 2, Instinct 2X, Instinct 3 Solar and Forerunner 255. Not yet confirmed on a physical Instinct or Venu 2 — if yours misbehaves, please say so in a review or at waketrack.app/help. V2.6 — Upload token survives a store update; "NOT LINKED" shown before a ride. V2.4.1 — 2× denser GPS tracks (a point every ~4 s). Jumps pinned on the map. More jumps detected: thresholds re-tuned for cable riding and a ~300 ms timing bug fixed. Detection report per session. Rides that can't upload keep their full track and send later; held 14 days if your link needs fixing. V2.4.0 — The watch tells you clearly if a ride hasn't uploaded and how to fix it. Background upload retries, easing to hourly. Custom wakeboarding FIT fields on every activity. New home: waketrack.app. V2.3.0 — Ride Effort (cable-speed drive/slack scoring) and GPS crash detection. Lap counting rewritten for multi-cable parks. Uploads saved to watch storage the moment you finish.
