ACTION CAMERA | GoPro
This super powerful little action sports GoPro Hero Session is the little brother of the famous GoPro camera. With incredibly high-performance specs for something so small, it does an excellent job of keeping up with its big brother. Waterproof, robust, and compact, the Hero Session makes the perfect partner gift for someone who adores skiing adventures. A super simple single button to turn on, record, and turn off makes it easy to use with gloves and ensures skiers don’t waste any time setting it up when they could be out charging on the mountain. Skiers can slip it onto a helmet mount, and their whole day can be recorded and re-lived.
BOOT DRYER | The Dry Guy
There is nothing worse than putting on ski boots with wet insides. A skier will love getting a boot dryer in their Christmas stocking. The DryGuy Travel Dry DX Boot Dryer offers energy bar-sized fan slides that neatly slip into boot liners and plug into an included AC/DC power adapter, so boots can even be dried in a vehicle. The hybrid system pulls air over a thermal element before venting, heating boots (great for regular shoes) and drying them faster than a traditional fan system. Drying takes two to five hours, depending on the moisture level.
HAND WARMER | THERMOCHARGE
Let us confront the undeniable truth: the lofty altitudes of mountain peaks can usher in a biting cold. Skiers frequently grapple with the discomfort of chilled extremities; thus, possessing a hand warmer becomes advantageous for warmth and comfort. Never mind disposable warmers—they’re wasteful and usually don’t give skiers the warmth they need. The Thermocharge hand warmer provides six hours of heat on the slopes and can be charged overnight via a USB port. It also has a secondary function as a phone charger. A phone’s battery is depleted much quicker in the cold, so it’s great that a skier can plug their phone into this hand warmer to boost the battery.
