Polar flow training

Having a heart rate monitor is a must for an efficient zone training. I have written extensively about that in past articles. However, the watches are becoming more sophisticated, with even more possibilities. Furthermore, the analyzing software and accompanying services are sometimes really amazing.

Recently I switched from older Polar RCX5 to new V800. I could write a lot about the improvements, but also some setback (fortunately minor). However, the new Polar Flow service is a pleasant surprise. Among other things, it can "relive" your track in a nice video, with some Google maps photos of the training track. All that with one click. Of course, if you wish, and know how to do it, you can spice it up with your own photos or video materials using editing software (I didn't do it this time).

Here is the video made with "relive" function of Polar Flow. One short, but nice bike ride training.

Jadrija, Šibenik. Croatia

Sometimes, you just can't  take your eyes of of the beauty: the see, the wind and the sails... South wind, moderate strength; warm weather, sunny... All is well. :-)

Jadrtovac, again

Almost ideal forecast for jugo (south) wind. Not so ideal in practice, but anyway, some of Croatian speed windsurfers enjoyed again in Jadrtovac, the fastest speed spot in Croatia.

Oh, that is how I like it!

Long winter, cold weather, old bones... but it is finally over now! Today at Srima, nice bora (for 8,6 sail, with completely flat water), middle of the week, no people, no sailboats- just me and the easy wind.




















Nobody around to make pictures, so one selfie should be enough as a proof I was there. :-)

2015. Season opening

Middle of February - quite late for season opening. But, cold and snow, mist and clouds, and me being in the north and traveling pursuing business maters... all that contributed to a little delay. However, here it is - a sunny afternoon, the village of Žaborić, little bit south from Šibenik, and weak south wind (jugo) - barely enough for 8,6.

Nevertheless, it was - ...amazing!
