Sport Forums

SuuntoSports.com has its own Sports Forum with pages for each Suunto sport. The basic features and functions are the same for all sports pages—sport-specific news, bulletin boards and chat rooms. Users can also suggest links to sports-related sites and tips regarding the sport and equipment to be published on the site, or publish their own travel reports.

Sport forums include presentations of sports-related locations. Users can rank the locations an comment on them, and the results are published next to the resort information. You can also create ranking lists for other things—for example, what group has most members, who has uploaded most logs or has collected the biggest verticals, visited the highest places, and so on.
