I have one. It's a great watch for the intended purpose. It's a crap watch for kiteboarding. It's too thick. It won't fit comfortably under a wetsuit sleeve. A basic surf watch is better. If I was buying a new sports watch I would get a Garmin Fenix.

Brilliant watch (that goes over my wetsuit sleeve) and uploads my stats auto-magically. Three clicks to turn on and start recording.

Ive had both the fenix and still have the Suunto ambit , suunto craps on the fenix for live battery time and ease of use IMO.

LOL. I had to post this thread to see what reaction I would get, and more importantly to get info on a proper watch for kite boarding. Yeah Highaz has my vote. Of course you need GPS! LOL... but never the less Casio do have GPS watches with proper barometric metering for altitudes and jumps of course. Can't get the model number of one right now though. Any takers?

Fits under a wetsuit fine.
