Carv knows when you are skiing and monitors the movement of each foot with 35 live metrics. These metrics included very precise measurements of the angle, rotation, pressure distribution of each foot.

These data are used to compare your turns against professional benchmarks (Level 3/4 ski instructors) so Carv can assess your technique for four skills:

1. Balance (forward/back lean)
2. Edging (edge angle, similarity and more)
3. Rotation (rotary smoothness and similarity)
4. Pressure (outside/inside ski, smoothness and more).

Carv identifies the skill that's holding you back.

You'll get personalised tips and drills, designed with top instructors, to help you improve your skills.

To find out which size of Carv you need please see our full article on sizing here:
