SideEye™ Applications
SKIERS AND BOARDERS who are not the fastest on the mountain, BOARDERS struggling with heel-side turn visibility, INSTRUCTORS AND PARENTS leading others
Skiers: See the Action Around You
As slopes become more crowded, the risk of collisions increases. The SideEye™ lets you focus on where you’re going without losing sight of the view behind you — glance at the mirror or keep it in your peripheral vision.
Snowboarders: See on Your Heel-Side
The natural blind side caused by the sidewards placement of your feet on the board creates real hazards. When making wide turns or traversing, the SideEye™ provides the extra capability to avoid getting hit or hitting someone else.
Instructors: Watch Your Students
Ski or board downhill while monitoring your students behind you and giving them tips immediately after stopping. Students are naturally more likely to follow instructions when they know they might be watched.
Parents: Watch Your Children
Stay in front of your child while still watching their progress and seeing sooner if they’ve fallen — no more choosing between leading the way and keeping an eye on them.

The SideEye™ is a supplement to good judgment — not a substitute for it.
Be a predictable rider by not mixing up turn sizes on crowded slopes.
Don’t be a “slope hog.” Stay towards the sides of trails; when crowded, slow down and blend with traffic.
Identify the action around you, steer clear of uphill riders’ paths, then stay predictable with tighter turns in your lane.
Be considerate of others — distance yourself by at least 15 feet.
Watch out at intersections and always look uphill before starting out or crossing a run (traversing).
