Skiing is awesome. And the better you are, the more fun you have. Introducing Carv,
the world's first real-time ski wearable. Carv is your digital ski coach that
puts world-class ski instruction in your ears.
We've all had skiing lessons before and they're great, but you can't have a coach
with you every time you ski. Carv fits into any ski boot and is always with you
analyzing your every move by seamlessly integrating a thin pressure and motion
sensing insert, powered by a tracker. With lessons you have to wait until the end
of the run to hear how you did. Carv speaks to you as you ski to correct your
form in real time. Welcome to your advanced ski training lesson 5.
Keep your weight forward. Good job!
Skiing drills can be repetitive and boring. Carv transforms drills into
exciting and rewarding games.
Carv has trick recognition to track your time in the park. Get detailed stuff from
your session with takeoff and landing analysis to check if you're balanced.
when you should be in aren't lending too hard.
If you're a racing skier you can get a complete data record to take the
guesswork out of training. Know what makes you faster and set targets to
improve.
And for all levels of skier, Carv tracks your stats over time, so you'll
really be able to see the difference Carv has made to your skiing. It then lets
you share your progress with friends and see how you compare. Hi Kickstarter. Jamie
and I have been working on Carv for the past two years. In that time we've tested
our technology with world-class athletes and even Olympians and incorporated
their feedback into our designs. We've spent thousands of hours to ensure
maximum comfort whilst maintaining robustness and reliability on the
mountain. Carv is our first consumer device to truly combine pressure and
motion sensing. This gives unprecedented insights into your ski technique and you
can see, oh man it works fantastic. You can see it on spot, but
you can see here, amazingly good you know? So that makes life so much easier. So
whether you're a professional or a casual skier like me Carv will help you
get the most out of skiing. We've developed Carv from the ground up with
production in mind. We've partnered with manufacturers in Shenzhen China to
ensure Carv will ship on time ready for the next ski season. To bring Carv to the
mass market we're turning to you Kickstarter. We need your help to
purchase the materials and tooling required for our first batch. Back us
today and you can be one of the first people to experience Carv. Skiing is
awesome and now we can make even better.
I really think that this technology can revolutionize the way people think about
skiing. We make skis to make it easier for everyone from the best to the
novice. And I think this technology is something that not only can help the
best racers in the world improve their time by that one hundredths of a second
that matters, but it can help a whole range of people ski better. We've been
testing this pressure sensor and motion device which is a really cool thing,
because it kind of brings a new perspective, you know? It's interesting
that every turn you see like single, all the pressure all the movements like the
whole racer you see what he is doing in one turn. I think that for our
sport is really really interesting because you can achieve more information
and good information that usually you don't have. So instead of something
dragging on for months and not understanding where the problems are
coming from, it will be instant. Sometimes you cannot feel it, you cannot see it
under your camera and these pressure sensors allows you to see exactly what's
going on. And I think it's not so complicated and it's more, that's I think
that's the most important thing. You put this science sourcing in the boot and
that's all what you need. It is super cool because the the insole is so
light and thin so I can't feel it at all. It's not disturbing so I can ski on
my best. It's one millimeter what you feel in the boot, so it's compared to
nothing. It's just it would be like the same if you wear a thicker sock. I think
it's brilliant to educate ski instructors especially
for racers but also for everyone you know? If you have this I think it's not
that expensive but then you have it happen then you can control yourself.
Usually it's really surprising because usually I don't like to mix
that much technology. I really trust my feelings and I'm
this kind of type of guy so I was a bit skeptical you know before I was testing
that. But now I see that it actually does show you a lot of things you know, and it
really works so I think that's gonna be a great combination together.
