SnoCru

An app that turns a day on the mountain into a game with your crew.

SnoCru links skiers and snowboarders on the mountain: check in at a resort, see who in your crew is riding, take on challenges like most vertical or fastest top speed, and track every run on the trail map. We designed the app, the website and the identity together, with thin, quiet type and dark screens that let big mountain photography and the numbers riders brag about do the talking.

App, Website, Visual Identity


Branding

Thin type, bright signals.

The app speaks in Helvetica Neue: Thin for the numbers riders brag about, like vertical feet, top speed and new snow, Light for screen titles and Roman for everything read on the chairlift. The website adds Lato, with resort names set in italic.

Night and glacier slate let the mountain photography carry each screen. Powder cyan marks what you can tap, lime fills the challenge rings, and coral is saved for the one button that stops tracking.
