Worst Ever

By Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete Ranked #110 - Running Watches November 4, 2008

this is the worst designed foot pod attachment i've ever used. i have lost 2 t6 footpods with this attachment. it is supposed to stay on via rubber tension. but if you run trail or mud it's bound to come off. no doubt. i've kicked it off in the middle of a 50km race after a couple miles of moderate bushwhacking... there goes $100. i've also stepped in mud in the cascade mountains that almost took my shoe off. i saved the shoe, but the foot pod was gone forever. this thing sucks.

i also know for a fact suunto has updated this piece and it's now presumably better.

the new Suunto Foot Pod is MUCH better, I've used mine a bunch (trail running exclusively) and it's solid, in fact, I never take it off. Also, the new foot pod is about half as big, and turns on with motion, so much better battery life.
