We're excited by the new Apple updates to the Apple Watch 3 where we can track ski and snowboard activity. This helps us in the app we have been developing for the last few months of 2017 and into this year. 

Now we can track:

  • Total vertical descent and horizontal distance

  • Number of runs

  • Average and maximum speeds

  • Total time spent

  • Calories burned

This helps in tracking active calorie measurements directly to your Apple Watch Activity app. You can record runs and see your vertical descent and horizontal distance as well as speeds. You can also save your workout info to your Health app. In addition, you can use Siri to track runs with your voice.
