Ski Goggle Alert: Bone Phone

Walkie-talkies and cell phones can be indispensable on the hill, but when the wind is blowing — or the après-ski cover band is too loud — you might have trouble getting your point across. The Speakgoggle G33 from Buhel hides a special microphone on the bridge of your nose, where it picks up vibrations of your bones as you speak, sending your words via Bluetooth to your phone or to as many as six other Speakgoggles. The bad news? Now everyone can hear those voices in your head.
