My statistics - add new all time maximum elevation gain

[OliCH]

I would like to see a new field in the stats under your Profile for the "most elevation gain in a single activity. In the overview of my statistics only "longest ride" and "biggest climb" are displayed. The statistics about the maximum elevation gain in a single activity is missing. For example, if I do an Everesting would be in my statistics then 8848m.

Hi there, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Unfortunately, it's not quite clear what you're suggesting -- or rather, the format of your post is written less like a suggestion and more like a statement. Would you mind confirming that you're suggesting a new field in the stats under your Profile be added for the "most elevation gain in a single activity"? If so, do you mind if I edit your post a bit to reflect that more clearly?
Currently, the biggest climb statistic is tied to a segment and the segment has to be matched to the activity.

Hello Soren

Sorry for my bad English/description of my idea.

You are absolutely right with your estimation. I want to have a new field in the user profile under my statistics. This should show disconnected from a segment the most height meter gain in a single activity. Example. I ride 170 kilometers and have an elevation gain of 3400 meters. If this is my personal elevation meter record, it should now say in my profile under "most elevation gain in a single activity" = 3400.

I hope my explanation fits now?

Greetings Oli

This would be a pretty cool feature to see, because of the everesting challenge like you said. I would like to see it added.

Thanks for the additional clarification, Oli. Your suggestion has been reviewed by our moderation team and is now open to voting.

Would also love to see a link to the activity where the record was set!

@Soren @Ekibbike That's how I imagined it too. as with the other fields such as the longest bike ride. With these fields you will also be forwarded directly to the respective activity.

This is a no brainer for Strava to add - like you say they include Longest Ride and Biggest Climb, makes sense Strava adds Most Elevation Gain Ride.

I have thought about this for several years, as I cycle in mountainous areas. Yes this needs to be added. After all Strava is all about Statistics and Challenges etc.

My idea got implemented. Why this is still open and not accepted?
