Garmin Fenix as a altimeter?

Recommended Posts

I did my first (tandem) jump this past Friday and recorded the experience with my Fenix3:

Some things to consider:
Not sure if you can set-up a profile to measure altitude over ground, mine was showing over sea level (which would be an issue)
The refresh rate seemed fine, but I wonder how much more accuracy you need?

I think it does more than 1 second.
However, ask me again after I start ground school and maybe get another jump or two in with it.

The tactix has a jumpmaster mode:
