My main exercise is rowing on the Concept2 rowing machine found in nearly every gym in the world. We need this as an exercise on the Surge. Converting other exercises in the log doesn't work because the cadence is not captured correctly and the the work converts into calories differently. It means I have to keep my other tracker. There have been a lot of posts on this.

I have been rowing for over a year now and my logs dont even make the cut of what I have put in on fitbit, I am thinking of switching, and all the trouble they are having with the bands breaking as well! Rowing is an Olympian Sport and absolutly should be added!

I don't see a clear answer to this rower's frustration--make a suggestion to add rowing?Really? I think that was just what the user did! We don't need nicey-nice non answers--we clearly need the rowing option NOW!

 

And about the band issue, I'm on my 3rd Surge, which will be my last one when the band fails.
