Riders taking crowns with the wind
I'm honestly amazed by how accurate the calculations are. Whenever I go all out on a segment, the time Tailwind KOMpass predicts turns out to be pretty much the fastest I'm physically capable of riding. Thanks to you and your website, I've taken over 50 QOMs since September… which is crazy!
This is a fantastic tool. Even if you're not a KOM hunter, it's great for shredding your own PR's. It uses your own Strava data to estimate what your times will be on each segment. The alert feature is great and easy to set up to give you the best windows to plan your attack. I love this app and have already recommended it to several friends.
