Sport Forums

SuuntoSports.com has its own forum for each Suunto sport. The basic features and functions are the same for all sport forums - sport-specific news, bulletin boards and chat rooms. Users can also suggest links to sports-related websites and tips regard- ing the sport and equipment to be published on the website. They can also publish their own travel reports.

Sport forums include presentations of the sport-related resorts. Users can rank the resorts and comment on them, and the results are published next to the resort informa- tion. You can also create ranking lists for other things - for example, where is the highest peak, what group has most members, who has uploaded most logs, and so on.
