Adventure is about to get SAFER
I have been around mountains for most of life, sometimes climbing them, sometimes trekking them, mostly flying off them, and I have always held them in deep respect.

But as a medical doctor, I have always felt amazed as to how fragile our body is when we confront the elements. I am reminded of Nietzche's line that God must have felt so sorry when he had finished creating man, that he gave him a mind to make up for his scrawny appearance.
So it is with our mind that we have been able to climb the highest summits. And it is with this mind that we have created solutions at WiCis-Sports that allow us to better know how our body is behaving at altitude and then sharing that data with those who can interpret it.
Today, while you climb, we can monitor your body temperature, your heart rate, your oxygen saturation, and stream these numbers every second to a server where only one second later, one can view this data plus your altitude, geo-location, body position, bearing and speed - anywhere in the planet.
But our concern at WiCis-Sports has been that this data must be valid - data that specialized caregivers can use to monitor your climb and aid in your decision making. We offer REAL DATA in REAL TIME.

No climber today attempts an important summit without a weather forecast. But did you know that by following certain vital signs, we can also predict your chances for success?
So before a climb, get a weather forecast. And before and during a climb, follow and stream your body's vitals. And improve your chances of coming back.
