Default Wrist Altimeter any good for ulm and paramotor ?

Hi All,

Suunto X6 appeals me as an altimeter for paragliding w/wo motor.
However, Suunto himself in its documentation don't recommend it for
this use ...
Any further comments ?


I'm not familiar with the particular Suunto models, but I use an
Avocet for powered paragliding and it works fine, but the Suuntos are
better (the Avocet was given to me by a friend who replaced it with a
Suunto).

The non-recommendation may be for liability reasons.
