IMPROVED SKIING WITH CARV TECHNOLOGY

At the January general meeting, we showed videos introducing the club to the CARV 2 device (an upgrade from the original CARV device). This is technology that is advertised to turn skiing into learning with personalized tips.  The CARV 2 device clips onto the outside of your boots and through a gyroscope and accelerometer, together with Motion AI analyzes your skiing and gives you real time coaching through an App on your phone.  The coaching can be in real time, or at the end of a run to give you feedback through what is called your Ski:IQ. 

​

The first video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8M4REIZVG8  is the New-CRAV2; For every boot, in every terrain.  This introduces the product and shows what to expect for the real time coaching it gives while skiing, detecting the type of terrain you’re on such as moguls and powder to optimize your skiing. 

The second video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10f5T2Blpf4 is a Tom Waddington video, entitled 1 DAY CARVING TRANSFORMATION – 2 drills to improve your Ski:IQ.  He uses CARV technology to coach an average skier to improve his carving.  After measuring the student’s Ski:IQ and seeing the data from the CARV App, he focuses on improving three parameters: Early Edging, Edge Angle and Outside Ski Pressure.  After practicing a series of drills, the student’s skiing is again analyzed, and his carving was very much improved!
