Description

Hardware ski coaches need €200+ sensors in your boots plus a subscription; GPS trackers give numbers but no coaching. SkiCoach is neither: the sensors already in your phone score your technique 0-100 and an audio coach talks to you through your earbuds while you ski. No account, no cloud, works in airplane mode. New in 2.0: real snowboard mode, GPS run replay with speed heatmap, Season Intelligence, PDF report, and a one-winter Season Pass with no auto-renew. Free tier stays free. Made in Graz.

Could you build this?

Partial A basic sensor logger is easy to code, but building real-time biomechanics scoring and turn-analysis models purely from arbitrary in-pocket smartphone IMU sensors requires complex signal processing and sports science domain knowledge.

What it would actually take: Requires processing smartphone accelerometer and gyroscope streams at 50-100Hz through sensor fusion filters (Kalman/Madgwick) and spatial reorientation algorithms to isolate turn initiation, edge angle, and pressure independently of pocket orientation. A real-time inference model or heuristic rule engine must classify turn dynamics (carving vs. skidding) and trigger low-latency audio feedback via an offline text-to-speech engine. Requires expertise in inertial navigation systems (INS), biomechanics, and on-device embedded ML (CoreML).
