Product Description
Almost half the volume of its predecessor, the lightweight Suunto Foot POD will follow your performance off road or on, indoors or out. Coupled with your Suunto t3/c, Suunto t4/c, or Suunto t6/c, it allows you to monitor and record your real-time speed, distance, and pace data as well as heart rate and time. Speed limit alerts warn you if you stray above or below your personal limits, making the Suunto Foot POD the ideal tool for marathon pacing and mixed-intensity training. For interval training, the ability to capture running speed and distance, as well as automatic lap times and distances, makes the Suunto Foot POD an invaluable training companion. The Suunto Foot POD complements your Suunto heart rate monitor and Suunto Training Manager software. The combination of your run data and physiological data provides a complete picture of your training. After your run, you can use Suunto Training Manager software to view speed profiles and graphs for comprehensive post-training analysis.
Amazon.com Product Description
The new smaller and lighter Suunto Foot POD wirelessly transmits speed and distance data to your Suunto Wristop Computer heart rate monitor, providing you a more complete analysis of your workout. It features accurate data collection during both indoor and outdoor workouts by measuring each stride with built-in acceleration sensors and speed limit alarms alert you if you're going above or below your preset limits. When combined with the integrated altimeter of a Suunto T6 or T6c, you'll get an even more complete picture of your performance--uphill, downhill, and on any terrain. It has a water resistance rating of 30 meters (100 feet), enabling it to withstand rain and splashes of water, but not swimming.p strongAbout Suunto/strongbr Suunto was founded in 1936 by outdoors man and a keen orienteering enthusiast, Tuomas Vohlonen, who had long been bothered by a problem: the inaccuracy of traditional dry compasses and their lack of steady needle operation. Being an engineer with an inventive turn of mind, he discovered and patented the production method for a much steadier needle, better readings, and a new level of accuracy.p By 1950 the company was exporting compasses to over 50 countries around the world, including Canada and the United States. In 1952, Helsinki was hosting the Olympic Games, and the torches carried to light the Olympic flame were Suunto products. The next step was improving the stability and accuracy of marine compasses. The first marine compass, the Suunto K-12, was launched onto the market in 1953. In 1957, Suunto started manufacturing hypsometers, which measure the height of trees.p In the 1960s, the compass range grew further and Suunto introduced its first diving compass--initiated by the divers themselves. A British sports diver attached a Suunto compass to his wrist and found that the device also worked underwater. Thanks to his feedback and initiatives, the new business category was found. Suunto's exports and business grew steadily and Suunto then focused on combining its strength in precision mechanics with new skills in electronics. Accuracy, reliability, and ruggedness have been Suunto's key values from the very beginning of the company history.p Today, Suunto is a leading designer and manufacturer of sports instruments for training, diving, mountaineering, hiking, skiing, sailing, and golf. True to its roots, Suunto is today the world's biggest compass manufacturer. Prized for their design, accuracy and dependability, Suunto sports instruments combine the aesthetics and functionality of watches with sport-specific computers that help athletes at all levels analyze and improve performance. Headquartered in Vantaa, Finland, Suunto employs more than 500 people worldwide and distributes its products to nearly 60 countries. The company is a subsidiary of Helsinki-based Amer Sports Corporation with the sister brands Wilson, Salomon, Atomic, Precor, and Mavic.p

 More convenient than GPS. December 22, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
First, I purchased the Suunto GPS and found it to be a pain to use. It involved waiting for 5 to 10 minutes to recieve a GPS satellite connection. I often run trails, and the GPS would loose connection and leave me feeling lost in the woods. I "bit the bullet" and purchased the foot pod to be more convenient. It is definetly more convenient and has worked well indoors and out. The accuracy is questionable at times and often does not match the treadmill or my Garmin GPS, but it is in the ballpark. I would buy this rather than the GPS if I had it to do over.

I used twice and it worked perfectly! The price is OK. This product is perfect for trainning in places where you don't know the distances.br /I recommend.br /Rafael
Fiesty Footpod October 7, 2008
I bought the footpod to use with my T6C for Ultra-Marathon training. With just over 100 miles on it I have had no issues with the function of this device. Once calibrated it is very accurate (many comparison runs wearing it and my Garmin 301, both measure very close), and works better than my Garmin 301 when running wooded trails where the GPS can't get a clear look at the sky. No issues in the rain or when crossing creeks, and the device itself it hardly noticeable when on your shoe.br /br /The only problem I have with it is it is very difficult to detach from the base plate when you want to move it to another pair of shoes. Maybe I am doing it wrong, but I can't seem to find "the right way" and I have a tough go everytime I want to move it from my trail shoes to my road shoes. On a positive note, I have no fear whatsoever of losing it...
