I started using Ski Tracks instead of Trace last week in Steamboat and already prefer it. All the stats are updated and displayed throughout your session in real time, instead of being downloaded at the end of your session. Much simpler interface, and seems to use less battery power.

i'll make the switch next season i think. i like the stats but don't go crazy trying to beat myself. i like it for the maps and a way of recording where i've been for the season. i link to each day on my sig so i can find them easily (rather than logging in to trace).

I tried Snocru, but it takes more steps to get going and is always trying to force you to the subscription... Ski Tracks is simple and does the job...

After running both Trace and Ski Tracks simultaneous the past 2 days, Ski Tracks shows significantly higher speeds. I haven't done a run by run comparison but for max speed, first day Ski Tracks was 8.8 mph higher and the second 7.3.

Pretty sure they operate off cell tower . Need an adapter to operate off Satellites

new version of Trace today (5.3.0). says bug fixes, hopefully battery consumption was one of them. we'll see tomorrow.

Ski tracks = higher speeds but lower very. I run both trace and tracks every outing... Yeah I'm a numbers guy

i'm not worried about stats (much) but just the overall maps and ability to review my history. which app do you prefer?

guess i can try both tomorrow. if my battery doesn't get killed

i have only used ski tracks and like it a lot. i find the gps real time positioning to be fairly accurate and very useful. i have always found the speed to be very overstated. i can generally make it thru a 6-7 hour ski day but the battery dies around the end of the day.

Gary- I like the maps also.. Maps and vertical- don't really care about speed.
Probably like ski tracks a little more to check during the day... But trace for after the fact due to profile aspect

ran both today. agree, trace after the day is more interesting to review and see how the day progressed. i like that trace uploads to a site and i can play around on the PC rather than just on the phone.
