CARV at Fernie Alpine Resort

The next big technological advancement in skiing is here at Fernie.

 
Stop guessing — start improving. CARV combines real-time performance data with expert on-snow coaching from Fernie’s CARV-trained pros. Small sensors attach directly to your ski boots and track every turn, providing personalized feedback and measurable insights into your skiing.

Your coach combines CARV’s data with their own observations to help you understand what’s happening in your skiing, identify where you can make the biggest improvements, and turn that information into changes you can feel on snow.

Whether you want to improve your carving, become more balanced and efficient, or simply better understand your skiing, CARV brings a new level of insight and focus to your development.

How CARV works

CARV uses small sensors that attach to your ski boots and connect with the CARV app to analyze your skiing as you move down the mountain. Your coach uses this data alongside their own observations — and video when available — to:

  • Identify what’s happening in your turns, not just what it feels like.
  • Set clear, achievable goals for your skiing
  • Connect drills and coaching cues to measurable feedback
  • Track changes and progress throughout your session

Going beyond carving

While CARV is often associated with carving, its value goes well beyond groomed runs. At Fernie, we use CARV as an all-mountain coaching tool, helping skiers develop the skills, awareness and confidence needed for variable snow, steeps, bumps and off-piste terrain.

By providing objective feedback on your skiing, CARV can help build a clearer understanding of how you move and perform from turn to turn. Combined with expert coaching, those insights can be translated into stronger fundamentals, greater efficiency and more adaptable skiing across the mountain.

For Fernie’s terrain, that matters. The goal isn’t simply better carving — it’s becoming a more capable, confident and versatile skier.
