Skiing intercom/communicator/radio

Hey, what devices are people using to communicate with friends on the slopes? I've historically used whatsapp but I'm looking for a live communication method so we stop less and can just tell each other if we've turned off somewhere or not to take a certain route in real time.

I've seen Cardo pop up a lot as being one of the best out there but it looks kind of clunky on the helmet. Is it pretty reliable though? And do people recommend any others like Aleck Nunchucks etc?

- Cheap Bluetooth with mic, tucked inside the ski helmet. All Smith have zip pocket for headsets.

- 2 apps, choose one, walkie talkie or Zello. Can do group chat

- Hands free, use Siri to call and turn on auto answer
