Thanks geebax. It's not easy to have a ski friend who can be a pilot too except my wife. However, I think it would be safer if the drone controled by itself than by my wife ;-)
That's why I want to search for one that can do a better job.
I learn that, from their website, Airdog, Flypro and Yuneec can track down/descent by using some sort of tracker attached/carried by the subject. Will dji develop similar technology in the near future? For the time being, phantom or marvic is still at top of my list in consideration of price tag (most important), quality of pic/video (also most important) and portability.
No, DJI has not indicated they intend to add a feature like this, considering they already have Active Track. Whether the other makers can actually do what they claim, you will have to work that out for yourself, but bear in mind those sort of features are often publicised by the manufacturer, but when it comes down to the crunch, many times they don't work as advertised. If I wanted that feature like you do, I would want to see it working before I made any decision.
The other thing is all the potential obstacles on a ski slope, and avoiding them. The best Obstacle Avoidance system is a good pilot.
