Staying Connected Speed Riding in the Backcountry | Sena 2021 Snow Gear Guide

01-11-2021

In his iconic 16-year professional career, ski pro and adrenaline enthusiast J.T. Holmes has led the way in Ski-B.A.S.E. jumping, wingsuit flying, B.A.S.E. jumping and speedriding. To stay connected and document their incredible journey, J.T. and his crew use the Sena bluetooth communication devices, the same tech used in the Sena Latitude S1 snow helmets. As they take on new challenges laid out by the elements, J.T. and his crew use proven Sena bluetooth capabilities to keep the sound on without interruption or interference.This is vital for capturing the right shots and keeping lines of communication open.

In J.T.’s line of work, the thrills are high and so are the stakes. Discussing a speedriding shoot in Chamonix, France, J.T. recalled, “I can remember one clear ‘save’ that the Sena Bluetooth comms provided and it made the movie. Espen Fadnes and I had just flown off a buttress and I was looking one direction but drifting in another. Espen spoke calmly and directly to me mid flight in order to avoid a collision. In the full segment, there is audio of us during and debriefing that moment. By speaking to each other we are able to warn of our next dynamic move, erasing the unpredictable nature of high speed flying and skiing.”

The adjustable airflow system of the Latitude S1 lets you regulate the amount of air you feel as you shred any mountain. The speakers and microphone are nestled into the ear pads for seamless integration. And, the glove-friendly dial sits on the outside of the helmet, allowing you to focus on the ride.
