Stryd is designed to measure power when running, and will also work for power hiking while trail running. Stryd needs to get out of power saving mode, which requires a cadence higher than 120 SPM (i.e. jog at 5+ mph) for about a minute.
Every sport has its own unique dynamics — we’re just focusing on running and walking for right now. Stryd will not work well for soccer, ski-touring, basketball, etc.

Would be great to use this for other sports such as rowing machine. I could envisage being able to clip it onto the erg handle to measure vertical oscillation, or clip onto the back of ones shorts (like the Garmin Running Dynamics Pod) to measure the slide action.
Thanks for your feedback Chrisdunhill. For now, our goal is to continuously improve the overall Running With Power experience, but we may consider other sports in the future if there is sufficient interest.
