Hi all,

I fully agree with both Ryan’s and Scott’s remarks. Just adding to point 3 (usability of RunPowerModel for Skimo):

While simply adding the total weight of backpack, boots, and skis might lead to numbers that are in the right ballpark, I guess it is a bit more tricky in reality. I think the best would be to treat the weight of boots + skis and that of the backpack weight separately to account for the different levels of movement (boots and skis get accelerated more). This would make it necessary to create a new app. Maybe I find time for this in the autumn/early winter.

Best wishes,

Markus
