There's already an app for iphone/ipod touch that records air time

Some good quotes in there though:

For example, a typical snowboarding person might regularly exclaim after a jump that she 'caught' some 'big sky,' 'big air' or 'phat air' without ever quantitatively knowing how much time really elapsed in the air.

Quick end to the trick debate.   "Dude did you see my D-spin 7"?  " No way, that was corked; your feet weren't over your head"!  "Alright, let's download the data from my skis and find out for sure"!!!  They could have a little Led that displayed what trick you just did.

Yeah then your skis go all HAL9000 on you and say "I can't let you do that cork 7, Dave"

then you crash.

I saw the new dumont version.

If you spin leftside twice in a row, it reminds you to "SPIN RIGHTSIDE BITCH!"
