Been riding some hard trails last few days with friends using Garmin and my Apple Watch for backup. Finding the wahoo ride gives me zero points but my Apple watch multiple points. Friends using Garmin devices also multiple points. What’s going on?

Just a guess but does Wahoo record your HR (and sync it to Strava)? Without that, Strava won't calculate those fitness points as far as I recall...

Heart rate was recorded using a chest strap and matches the Apple Watch reading so no anomalies there

You could check your heart rate zones in the setup, maybe they are too high. And if you use a powermeter it takes precedence in the fitness point calculation so you have to check the power readings and setup power zones also.

Hello ​@AndyMate 

As ​@Jan_Mantau mentioned having your heart rate zones and power zones (FTP) set correctly is important for Fitness points to be calculated correctly.
