How it works
How Carv helps skiers break through to the next level...
Carv tracks your skiing
See what's holding you back
Turn shape
Your turns likely aren’t round enough, forcing skidding on steeps.
The transition
It’s common to release late between turns, making the edge change less fluid.
Edging
When you engage your edges late, the skis wash out before they grip.
Balance
Weight may be shifting behind your feet at the start of the turn, limiting ski grip.

FAQ
Carv analyses what terrain you're skiing, your turns and highlights the one or two things that will make the biggest difference to your skiing.
It does this by comparing the movement of your skis and model of skiing based on 1 billion ski turns across every level.
Over the season you'll see where you're at on the skill pathway and get tips as you ski to improve.
Carv tracks every turn through ultra-precise motion sensors in your ski boots. The app analyses your technique in real time and gives you audio feedback as you ski — like having a world-class coach in your ear.
After each run, you’ll see your Ski:IQ — a measure of your overall performance — along with detailed insights in your skill pathway, which shows you how to improve specific skills and take your skiing to the next level.
Ski:IQ™ is a measurement created by Carv to provide an objective score of your ski technique.
It is based on how you ski in each terrain, and how your ski movement patterns compare to perfect technique.
A beginner skier will score 70, an intermediate 100-120, advanced 120-140 an expert scoring 140-160.
Carv tracks your Ski:IQ™ over time so you know when you're improving.
Yes! Carv automatically detects the snow you’re skiing on — from groomers to bumps to powder.
You can ski anywhere and Carv will adapt your coaching to match the terrain, with dedicated coaching pathways for Parallel, Carving, Moguls, Short Turns, and Powder.
Wherever you ski, you’ll always have a clear next step to keep progressing.
Carv’s passes are active for 365 days.
That means if you buy Carv now, you’ll get this season and most of next season to enjoy Carv, all within your first year of membership.
That makes the end of the season a great time to join Carv.
