I’m not sure that skiing down the side of a mountain and fiddling with your iPod is the safest thing to do in the first place but now, there is a small chance that the O’Neill H3 Fat Controller Glove might help you avoid a pair of broken legs.

The back of the glove boasts a waterproof control system that uses an in-built radio transmitter to access the precious iPod under the 40 layers of clothes you'll be wearing. It allows you to access your tunes, adjust volume and change tracks while on the piste, without having to fumble around and get frostbite.

Like most things skiing-related though, the gloves are not cheap at £99. They should be available through Blacks but there’s nothing on the Web site yet.-Martin Lynch
