What's New
Carv now makes improving more personal, more social - and way more fun
This year, we had a mission. Take all the amazing data in your Carv and create a truly powerful coaching platform. A coach that adapts to your goals, and builds you a pathway to get there. Improvement made simple, breakthroughs made inevitable.
What's new
Meet Personalized Pathways
Moguls, Carving, Parallel, Powder... you choose how you want to ski and Carv will get you there.
Carv with Friends
Skiing isn’t a solo sport - and Carv shouldn’t be either. Now you can track and celebrate friends in the Carv community.
Fewer taps, more laps
We focused on creating a simpler interface with automatic segmentation so you can focus on the snow not the screen.
PATHWAY
This winter, you lead the way
Do you want to carve like a racer, flow through bumps, master powder, or just nail those parallel turns? We redesigned Carv to coach each of those.
PATHWAY
Wherever you go, your pathway will lead the way
We all have different goals when we ski. So why should Carv coach us in the same way? This year, it won’t.
You just have to ski
Carv will automatically detect what style of skiing you’re doing based on the terrain and your turns.
Your next step, made simple
Your new personalized pathway shows the elements of each style. It focuses you on what’s next.
See what to do next
Simple and clear advice coaches you on teh whole body movements needed to hit your next level.
Notes from the team
This year we wanted to build a system that doesn’t just try and correct technique metrics. We wanted to coach the full body movements needed to change your skiing.
Ski:IQ is optimised per terrain
This year, each terrain goal has its own Ski:IQ, tuned with individual metrics to more accurately measure and coach you.
More content
We’ve invested in much more content to help you find that moment it clicks. The content is designed to be easy to digest and show a wide range of skiers that we can all relate to.
More parallel content
Carv had plenty to work on for experts, but we wanted to invest in parallel this year - with a parallel pathway and content for progressing skiers, not just experts.
Friends
The only thing better than perfect turns? Making them together.
FRIENDS
Track each other on the mountain
You can now add friends in Carv. You’ll automatically see each other on the map, compare your scores over the season, and cheer each other on.
Fewer taps.
More laps.
We wanted to make the experience cleaner, with the essentials front and center so you can focus on the mountain.
FEWER TAPS
Don't stop. Just ski.
It’s easier than ever to track your skiing. There is no longer a need to stop to “lock in your score” if you had a good section. Carv now automatically selects your top 8 turns, because the best coaches are the ones that help you cheat.
Here when you need it. Away when you don’t.
You can now add friends in Carv. You’ll automatically see each other on the map, compare your scores over the season, and cheer each other on.
Yes, Carv is the same thickness as a boot warmer at 3mm. It will fit in almost all ski boots including stock boots, custom moulded boots and boots with custom insoles. We offer a boot-fit guarantee so you can find the perfect match with Carv.
Carv will automatically detect the difficulty and snow type that your skiing on - taking into account steepness and terrain variability (bumps, crud, powder). Carv will adapt your score based on the terrain so you're always rewarded for keeping your form when things get dicey.
Carv's coaching is focussed on developing an efficient, dynamic and stylish technique. It will push you to make more stable, rounded and exciting turns. While Carv is not designed to coach you in off piste (yet), the improvements it will make in your fundamental technique will certainly iron out issues so when you do get the perfect pow conditions of the season - you are focussed on your line not your technique.
Most of us end up skiing at the same level for years, especially if we are already an advanced skier.
We hit a plateau because it is hard to know where the next breakthrough will come from.
We designed Carv to take the guesswork out of great skiing:
- Push your carving to the next level with detailed analysis
- Improve your consistency and efficiency
- Create higher pressure and edge angle.
If you can beat the top level drills and master the Carv ski challenges you'll be doing better than most instructors.
We’ve spent years working on the technology behind Carv, mapping millions of skiing turns (and counting) across Carv's 35 metrics. We have refined our scoring benchmarks and created our coaching with the world's top instructors.
That's why 95% of members told us they improved with Carv.
Carv will teach you to be a more versatile, efficient skier.
It's coaching models are built with data captured from the best skiers in the world, in every terrain.
But don't worry, Carv adapts to give you the right tips for your level so you're always getting advice that's going to help you.
You can expect to develop:
- Smooth parallel turns to increase your confidence
- Rotation and edging, helping you on steeper slopes
- An athletic stance to help you on ungroomed terrain
- Turn control and smoothness for bumps and powder.
