Ski Diva Extraordinaire
Recently I've come across two super cool ski-related products that got my inner geek excited.
One is called Ski Mojo and is a sort of exoskeleton that supposedly makes skiing a lot easier on the legs and knees. It's not cheap (480 pounds on the UK website) but the reviews I've read so far are positive. Some do mention it's a hassle to put it on, guess that's to be expected if you've seen the pictures. I know there's quite a few Diva's who've had knee injuries/surgeries, might be something to look into! Here's the UK website: Ski Mojo
The second one is the Carv digital ski instructor and tracker. A belgian newspaper published a test article this weekend and they were wildly positive about it. It isn't suited for absolute beginners, but anyone from an intermediate to expert skier could benefit from Carv (according to the article). It knows different drills and gives live feedback through wireless earplugs. They don't just register speed but also stuff like edge angle, your position on the ski (balanced or in the back seat) and it even corrected an A-stance during the test. That's pretty impressive to me and I would really like to try this out but once again, it comes with a decent price tag...
Here's the official website: Carv
I love discovering new products and technologies that might make skiing even more enjoyable! Would you try out one of these products? Any other promising inventions you'd like to share?
