About Us
Join the Carv team and be part of a fun, high-output environment where we are reinventing the way sports are taught. Carv is creating a new category of sports technology by redefining the way skiing is taught with cutting-edge hardware, real-time audio instruction, AI-driven data analytics and content curated by world-class instructors. We have grown 2x year on year for the past 5 years, now serve over 40,000 skiers globally and have a database of over 550 million ski turns.
The ultra-thin inserts retrofit to any ski boot to measure your pressure and motion as you ski.
