BETA — boat-mounted stroke rate for sprint kayak and canoe. Live SPM,
distance per stroke, SR zone alerts, fully customizable data screens.

## Full description

** LOCUS FIT IS IN BETA ** — it's stable and used daily by a competitive
squad, but you may hit rough edges. Stroke-rate tuning across devices and
conditions is still improving, and we ship updates frequently. Feedback goes
straight to the roadmap: support@locus.fit.

Locus Fit turns your Garmin into a sprint paddling computer. Mount the watch
on your boat — reading the hull's motion directly gives stroke-rate accuracy
that wrist-worn apps can't match — and get the numbers that matter for K1,
K2, K4, C1 and C2 training.

WHAT YOU GET (no account needed)
• Live stroke rate (SPM) tuned for sprint kayak and sprint canoe
• Distance per stroke (DPS) — the efficiency number, live and in your FIT file
• Pace, speed, heart rate, distance, timer
• Fully customizable data screen: 1 to 6 fields, every slot your choice
• Stroke-rate zone alerts: set your band, feel distinct buzzes for too fast,
  too slow, and back in zone
• Optional RPE logging on save
• Warmup Start: record your warmup, then start every crew member's timer from
  zero with one press — synced pieces on the water
• SPM, DPS, roll and surge recorded as chart-ready fields in Garmin Connect,
  plus avg stroke rate, total strokes and avg distance per stroke in the
  activity summary
• ANT+ stroke-rate broadcast for coach displays
• Touchscreen locks while paddling — spray can't stop your session

COACHING PLATFORM (PILOT SQUADS ONLY)
Structured workouts — pieces, rests, SR/pace/HR target bands, live compliance
— sync to the watch for squads on the Locus Fit coaching platform. This side
is still being refined with our pilot squad and isn't self-serve yet; coaches
who want in can reach out at locus.fit.

IMPORTANT — MOUNT YOUR WATCH
Stroke detection assumes the watch is rigidly attached to the boat (foredeck
mount, rail mount, or factory mount point). Wrist wear or taped-on rigs
degrade the signal. Visit locus.fit for mounting options.

Free paddling mode works out of the box: pick your sport, press start, paddle.
