best sports gadget ever
Carv totally transformed my skiing. Had it for 4 years, and since I got it I did not ski one day without it. The drills and data are invaluable, an for the price of a ski instructor for a day, I had a ski monitor in our pocket for about 80 ski days since 2017. I started with mostly doing the drills in my first year using it, and once I got to a decent level on each of the drills I’ve started to challenge my ski iq score. Lately the app introduced monitors and challenges, I enjoy the monitor mode and that’s a very good way to improve the technique and experiment. Combine the data and tips you get from the app with some of the instructional videos that Carv has produced and you’ll never stop improving your skiing. Plus it’s really motivational, I am finally excited to go skiing even to the local hills, not only to the big mountains, because every day I want to get better in all areas: balance, edging, pressure. In four years I’ve moved from a low intermediate ski iq score to a ski iq close to the scores of experienced ski instructors , the leaderboard is adding that extra motivation for sure, having the ability to be ranked at global level country level or at mountain level. The support from the Carv team is also awesome, I’ve had a couple hardware problems over these 4 years and they were very helpful in sending replacements. Great idea, great app, great hardware, great development and support team!
