Using the Countdown Timer

We know that sometimes it takes some time to get on the water, battle out through waves, fiddle with gear, put on a leash etc, so before you stow your device, you can set a countdown so you don't need to tap GO with wet hands.

This enables you to take your time getting ready before getting on the water and it is also useful when used with Time Trial Mode to mimic start conditions. Using the countdown timer will also allow your device to settle and to get a better GPS signal. 

To set a countdown, tap the timer icon in the bottom right on the Paddle Screen, select the amount of time you'd like and return to the main Paddle screen.

You will now see your countdown next to the timer icon. When you want to get on the water, just tap GO and your countdown will begin. GPS tracking will automatically start after your chosen countdown and you will hear a beep to notify you when tracking starts.
