There are a variety of skiing, ski resort, weather, and snow conditions apps available for your iPhone and iPod Touch. You can download apps that will give you information on gear, ski and snow conditions, open lifts, weather, trail maps, and directions to both U.S. and international ski resorts.
There are also apps, like Ski-O-Meter, which displays both your maximum and average speed, and how much distance you have covered. The SkiTips iPhone Apps offers skiing instruction, enabling skiers to take their skiing lessons on the slopes with them. SkiTips1 contains 30 lessons that teach all the fundamentals of skiing as well as carved turns and unweighting turns.
Here’s a list of the top iPhone apps for skiers. To download an app, visit the App Store by tapping on the icon on your phone and search for the application you are interested in. Or, visit Apple’s online App Store and use Power Search to search for an application using “skiing” or “ski” as keywords.

Apple reporte
dly has a new policy for its iPhone app store in which any application with “overtly sexual content” will be removed from the App Store, according to an e-mail obtained by TechCrunch.
But just like countless previous times, this latest tweak to Apple’s app rejection policy will have app developers scratching their heads trying to figure out what’s going on.
One app that has been removed from iTunes, called Wobble iBoobs, lets you take a selected image of a bikini model, add “wobble zones” to the photo, and then make those parts of the image move when you shake your iPhone. This app’s function was apparently a little too hot for Apple, so the app’s developer, Jon Atherton, received a removal notice from Apple, according to TechCrunch.
