Troubleshooting:

Attachment to shoe: make sure SDM tailwind is attached to the
laces securely enough that there is no “wobble” when you are
running. Finally, it should be aligned with the foot and secured
well enough that the alignment does not change during a run.

Orthotics:

People who wear orthotics or have extreme pronation or
supination in their stride may experience reduced accuracy.
Try re-calibrating for improved accuracy.

Varying Paces:

People who run at varying paces within a run may
experience reduced accuracy. Try calibrating at the
speed you usually run.
