Technology makes all of our lives easier and if you haven’t found a way to use technology to get more out of your shred, you’re probably doing something wrong. Mostly I use the web to score deals, to watch (obsessively) the weather forecasts, to check for information about the local hills, etc., and if you’ve got an iPhone then Liftopia
has a new app out for free that will help you get the most bang for your buck.

- Easily search and compare nearby mountain deals, based on their current location, via a list or map view. Safely book future lift tickets directly in the app then simply present your mobile voucher at the ticket window to receive your lift ticket. No print outs – no hassle.
- Find deals at and information about ski areas around the world through the Search tab
- Get the latest ski and snow conditions, weather reports as well as resort-specific details, including number of runs for each ability level, services and amenities, and photos
