No one should ever get this lost on a ski hill. This week O’Neill launched the NavJacket, which guides you through the mountains with audio GPS prompts over speakers inside the hood and an LCD screen mounted on your arm. This Frankenstein was made through a partnership between O’Neill and some GPS company called MyGuide. The NavJacket allows you to enter a location (like “downhillâ€) on the arm screen and then look at the map display while heading to the base. They haven’t listed a price yet, and it won’t be available until next season anyway—besides, I don’t see any LCD screen on the arm of this jacket, so I imagine we’ll see some changes to the project before next winter.

That’d actually be really sweet for offshore sailing solo racers, but the guy in the picture’s going to need way more than GPS. He doesn’t have any legs.
