The time for snow sports is here. Despite an atypical but distinct lack of snow in certain areas of the United States, there are still spaces out there knee deep with white powder — and we don’t mean the Colombian kind. If you’re near one of these lucky locations and plan to hit the slopes this season, it might be time to upgrade your gear. These days anything without a sensor is considered pretty dumb, however.

Modern skis can now track descents and helmets can record high-definition video, and with the right set of goggles, you can turn your descent into a game that only benefits from light-up bindings. Below are a few of our favorite pieces of smart gear for the slopes, whether you’re into skiing or snowboarding.

As far as headgear, the Forcite Smart Ski Helmet sets the bar pretty high. DT has followed its progress, and is happy to see it protects your head while combining tracking, HD video, direct helmet-to-helmet communication, and hand’s free calling into one protective package. The downside here is you may have to wait a while. The Forcite Alpine Kickstarter campaign didn’t reach its $200,000 goal, so let’s blame the Skully AR-1 for destroying our confidence in crowdfunding campaigns for smart helmets.
