This data field calculates a smoothed climbing rate and displays it in ft/min. On my Forerunner 920XT unit, the 30s Vertical Speed field seemed to bounce around wildly with each reading; so I wrote this to calculate a smoothed (10-second average) climbing rate.
V 1.1 checks your selected elevation units, and displays climbing rate accordingly: either ft/min or meters/sec.
Ignore the readings for the first few seconds; after that it looks really stable on my device. Let me know how this works if you try it!
