I’ve just been playing with the link between Ayvri and STRAVA.
Ayvri is a little like Relive.cc which had it’s linked with STRAVA recently stopped.
So; you link your Ayvri account to your STRAVA account and then get a 3D playback of your ride. Kinda like a helicopter view of your ride with the relative position of the helicopter continually changing. You do get some idea of elevation and there is also an elevation profile of the ride at the bottom of the screen as well as other ride info like your speed at the time.
Here is a snapshot view of me going up Dark Hill in Richmond Park recently. That’s my local ‘hill’…. #Flat !!
Let’s find a better example!
On their site, Ayvri also demonstrates an interesting use of the exact same technology for paragliding. Having recently watching lots of that in Morzine, Fr, then I reckon this is probably an even cooler way of demonstrating this kind of workout for the sport of paragliding than it is for cycling.
Have a look at how it handles the thermals (well I thought it was cool)

On the downside, the ability to overlay personal imagery was better with Relive. I’ll let Pete from Ayvri comment below if he wants to…

My favourite kit and nutrition
- Maurten — the race nutrition trusted by elite athletes. Gels and drink mix engineered to be easy on the stomach.
- Garmin 90-degree charging adapter — the small adapter that keeps your charging cable tidy at the stem. Essential for race day.
- Garmin charging puck — the fastest and most reliable way to top up your Garmin before a session.
- Ravemen FR300 — front light that mounts directly under your Garmin or Wahoo head unit. Keeps your bars clean and your beam pointed where it matters.
- Garmin Varia RTL515 — radar rear light that alerts you to vehicles approaching from behind. Pairs with your Edge or Garmin watch.
- Stryd — the footpod that brings running power to your Garmin. The single most useful running upgrade I have made.
- Favero Assioma Pro RS2 — the power meter pedals most serious cyclists end up choosing. Accurate, easy to move between bikes.

Thanks TFK,
We’ve got big plans ahead for adding photos and lots more. Ayvri is fully interactive, so you can get a better view along different parts of your adventure.
You’re right! Lots of paragliders use Ayvri, as well as Ultramaratons, drone pilots, wild-life researchers, and more. Every day people are find more interesting use cases for our tech
ah ok.
I see you also support RedBull WingsForLife and Tor des Grants
Can not connect to Strava. It couldn’t have come at a worst time……
Better use SportsTrackLive rather than using both Ayvri and Strava. SportsTrackLive provides their own 3D engine tool, even better than the one used at Ayvri, and SportsTrackLive provides their own tracker tools. No need to make connection between 2 platforms – https://STL.sport
i used sportstracklive yesterday, seems nice but a bit slow at rendering and re-rendering the display.
