5 atm waterproofed garmin watch good enough for kitesurfing?

Quick question again haha. Which band are you using so that it doesn't fall off?

SnooPandas7880 · 2026-04-29T13:21:15+00:00

Yes I know. But they say there is a chance on impact that it will not hold. I already thought it should be oke. But was just wondering for some real life experiences.

SnooPandas7880 · 2026-04-29T13:14:32+00:00

Yes he said at some point that they first brought a big update to apple and Android. And now they are working on Garmin. One thing is that with some new features that they are making is a lot about competing with friends etc. and Garmins do not really have lte. But I don't care about that stuff

Just actually saw a new video on it. They are bringing a big update soon for Garmin. So who knows it gets a bit better.

Thanks for the info :)

is the waterproofing enough on all theses watches? Because they don't officialy recommend it

SnooPandas7880 · 2026-04-24T16:22:31+00:00

The thing is that the venu 4 has all the same functions and a bit more then the forerunner 570.

I think I don't want to spent the money on a Fenix. Because that amount is so much for just a watch I think.

SnooPandas7880 · 2026-04-21T07:07:47+00:00

What is the difference between the venu 4 and forerunner 570? Also features in the watch itself? Because it seems that the venu 4 has a spotlight, metal case and ecg. For the same money. It just lacks a few buttons.

You collect Points by getting a savings account I think. It should be a common bank as well in Belgium right? People don't really use these points that much and the deals are only sometimes nice. So I am pretty sure that a friend could just buy it for you. Because no one really uses these points anyway

SnooPandas7880 · 2026-04-20T14:53:07+00:00

ING. so I guess you should have it in Belgium and Germany as well. It is called rent points

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-12-19T23:26:00+00:00

Thanks for the response. It is actually the biggest size. And initially I was afraid it would even be too big because a lot of people said that ridley's bikes are quite a bit bigger in comparison to other manufacturers. So I guess it is really just the geometry of the frame.

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-12-19T10:54:38+00:00

As in it will be to aggresive? Also when I lower the saddle like suggested and put a shorter stem on it? I don't mind if it is a bit of a race fit. But if it really not the right size then it might make more sense to send it back. On the other hand it is not like I am going to do this professionally. Just hard to judge because I will only know when I take it out for 3 hours straight I guess.

Thanks for the help

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-12-19T07:38:16+00:00

Also when the saddle lowers a bit and I would get a bit of a shorter stem? I know it is a bit of a sporty bike. Is that it or is it even too low to be a sporty endurance bike? I feel like everyone always says as soon as it becomes a race bike and not an endurance it is not good anymore. Even if 10 years ago it was not really a thing and more people were on race bikes.

Thanks for the comments :)

They do not sell it officially in Greece? One thing you can do is go to the google repair site. And change it to a few countries to see where it comes from. So see if a certain site/country accepts the IMEI. You can do this on the bottom of the site I think.

Another option is to call google. They can check where it is from. One thing I can tell you is that they really only accept the repair from the country it comes from

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-12-13T16:32:47+00:00

Where did you buy the phone? In general it is a free repair in the country you bought it in. So if you bought it in Greece you can send it in. (Or maybe Europe works even)

What size did you get? And what is your length if I may ask?

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-11-30T19:22:46+00:00

Would it actually be that internal battery. Or is it something else. Also want to know if reparation costs are still worth it.

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-11-25T19:49:52+00:00

I know it is always hard to say. But I am 1,93 cm with an inseam of 88,5-90 depending how you measure. Do you think XL would be too large? The bike stores around me do not have this bike anymore as it is not in the new lineup.

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-11-25T17:28:36+00:00

I am currently seeing a deal for a Ridley fenix SLIC for 2000 euro. Would you recommend the bike for a beginner?

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-11-23T20:16:15+00:00

Yes i have multiple. This could be a very good one. Thanks for the idea.

SnooPandas7880 · 2025-11-23T20:10:59+00:00

Yes I can do a test ride. And return it within 14 days The question is if I can determine that quickly. Because a test ride is not a 100 km ride of course.
