Three more comments: the software update for my model now allows you to change the measurement in the upper left box, so now all four boxes are changeable. Secondly, this gps automatically turns on the backlight and leaves it on when you use it between sunset and sunrise which is a nice feature if your workouts occasionally extend into dusk or start before sunrise. Third - on the NK website, you can select a mounting base for the gps. I use the flat plate and put a few dabs of silicone glue on the back and glue it to the near vertical area at the front of the footwell. The plate is $5 so you can buy one for all your skis.

Stroke length also works, but again, it's using positional accuracy and stroke rate and I don't think it's too accurate or helpful with a kayak paddle. It works much better with a single blade paddle, a lower stroke rate, and when there's more of a speed change from stroke to stroke than you'd get in a ski.
