Activity Recording Feature: Add a live segment rep counter

[Andreas-SWE-NOR]

Hello,

it seems Strava does not have an in-activity segment rep counter, for example for doing hill repeats in an Everesting. Please implement, and make available to e.g. Garmin and others for their data screen perusal.

To be very specific:

1. data to be available DURING the ride
2. when a Strava segment is completed during the ride, the count is set to "1" behind the scenes for that segment
3. if the rider is doing segment repeats during the same ride, the next time in the same ride the segment is completed, the count is set to "2", and so on
4. this count should be made available to e.g. Garmin and others so that it can be used in data screens DURING the ride
5. this count should be included in Strava segment data screens, e.g.
   1. SEGMENT "Climb to the sky" started. Count: 2 competed this ride.
   2. SEGMENT "Climb to the sky" completed. Count: 3 competed this ride

The above is especially relevant for hill repeats such as Everestings, where the same Strava segment is repeated multiple times until a certain total elevation gain is reached. For long climbs/few segments, the rider can easily keep track of the count without assistance, but for shorter climbs with >100 repeats, data assistance would be very valuable.

For example, I did an Everesting 10k with 309 segment repeats without the above tool. Not easy to keep the count there!

Thanks!

Hello @Andreas-SWE-NOR 

Thanks so much for your post.

 It’s not entirely clear from your post what you’re suggesting.  Do you mind elaborating and including more details on the topic? We kindly ask that you review our Ideas guidelines, particularly the “What makes a good idea” section, to ensure that your ideas are clear, concise, and can reach as many others as possible.

Do you envision this counter as something an Athlete sees during the recording, or after upload?

Thank you again.

Hi Jane, point taken, but for me "in-activity" and "in-ride" definitively means "during the ride". I have updated the idea text with more details. Thanks 😃
