Buddy Pass FAQs

When you download the Carv app for the first time, you will be asked to create an account and enter a Pass Code to add your pass to your Carv account. Here you will need to add your Buddy Pass Code.

Once your Buddy Pass is added to your Carv account, it will then activate on your ski day with Carv.

If you have any issues activating your Buddy Pass, please reach out to the support team here.

If you’re skiing with your friend who’s Carv sensors you are borrowing, they may have automatically connected to the sensors.

Ask them to forget the sensors in their app so you can pair successfully.

If you are still having issues pairing to your Buddy's sensors, please reach out to our support team here.

If your buddy purchased without using your referral code, have them reach out to our support team here so we can apply the discount for you.

We’ll get it sorted and make sure you both get the rewards you deserve.

Ski:IQ™ is a measure used to assess your skiing ability. This year* Carv calculates Ski:IQ™ using machine learned weightings of the 10 performance metrics which allows Carv to adjust which metrics to prioritise in your score, based on your skiing, the pitch and the terrain.

Different runs, and different skiers, may have different metric weightings used to calculate your Ski:IQ™, ensuring that our coaching is relevant to your level, and the terrain you’re skiing.


* These features will be available in the Carv app beginning November 5th 2024
