Use Next page and Previous page to switch between speed and heading, lap data, and total activity data. 3. While recording, press Back to create a lap. 4. Press Start while recording to open the pause menu. From there, you can resume, start a new lap, save, or discard the activity. 5. Open the menu and select Sailing mode to choose Cruise or Race. 6.
