GPS3 Watch
On the SearchGPS iOS App, we call anything that is not riding a wave “paddle distance”.
This could be drifting in a rip or current. Or simply sitting on your board as the waves push and pull you in and out to sea.
The GPS3 has a paddle counter that tracks when you’re paddling in the surf, we also use this to calculate drift - a measure of distance when you’re not paddling or surfing. The paddle count and drift distance can be viewed in the on-wrist logbook on the GPS3 watch, along with calorie burn for your session.
