Would love to have a app that gives you directions while skiing a new hill. Kinda like any driving app, can be run through Bluetooth to speakers in helmet. Punch in where you want to go and guide’s you. I get lost all the time at mountains I’m not familiar with.

A pair of large mittens designed to go over your regular mittens/gloves for extra insulation on those really cold days. Wouldn't need to be waterproof since you'd only get them out when it's way too cold to have liquid water.
I have these and they really warm things up, even without insulation.


Never tried these but…

The only problem with the Revel shell is that no retailers in the right bottom corner have chosen to order any :(

Getting lost is part of the fun. Sometimes it's the whole point.

How about expanding skis for shifting from on piste to deep pow. Thinking of something with wings like an F14 tomcat fighter jet that has wings that can be deployed to give you extra float in deep pow and retracted on hard packed snow when you want to engage the edge and go fast.

That already exist. It's call skillset.

Maybe the equivalent of the Samsung Z Fold... when you want more width, you just unfold your skis. :)

Atomic Double deck series. Atomic D2 VF 82. One of my all time favorite.

Just saw this yesterday. Wondering If I should invest? This is real, the sign is a couple of blocks from our home.

That's actually very much a thing for sick cats or fat cats who can't lick themselves properly.

And, since those cats are usually also long clawed and in a foul mood, they're probably not paying the technician enough.

Add to that having to work knots and tangles out with a pet-safe (lickable) detergent that leaves no conditioner residue, and you're pretty much having to recruit
saints.
