  • Always with you, reacting to your skiing
  • Simple, focussed, objective advice

When you ski with Carv you can set it running all day and customize how it interacts with you.

There are 2 kinds of coaching in Carv - in-app tips and data, and audio coaching:

  • You can customize the level of audio coaching you want at any time
    • Learn with just data, no audio
    • Hear tips on the chairlift or when you stop
