Measurement of vertical speed

I took my eTrex Summit with me to an amusement park last weekend, and tried the free-fall tower.

 

Elevation was measured to 36 meters (the sign said 35 m, but I reset my eTrex 1 meter below the starting platform)

 

Max speed was 56.8 km/h, so at least from that, it seems that the Summit can measure vertical speed.

 

I was not cool enough to read the speed while we was going down...
