JB,

Back to topic. Downloaded Ski Tracks early last March and used it for 19 days of skiing in March and April. It works. It is a lot of fun to review the #of runs, downhill mileage, vertical skied,  max speed, etc. The current version fixed some data hiccups. One day had a max speed over 100 mph. That was corrected when the 1.3.1 version was downloaded. New version adds the ability to record notes re: conditions, temp etc for a day. No significant battery hit for running Ski Tracks in the background. Start it at the beginning of the day and stop it at the end.

I ski with my iphone. Might as well have it working for me while I ski.

LP,
A power meter is a strain guage. Matters not whether in the cranks, hub or, soon to be released, in the in the pedals. Important training tool for the racer types. May not add a lot over an HRM for the recreational types.
