Idea details

Adjustable stiffness and components

Description

I broke off two skiis while I was doing free riding. First one I could not tell where was the rock and where was the slope a hidden edge just took of my skiis blades of and scorched off underneath the skiis which can happen anytime.So why not approach a skii piecewise...
I wish to have a skii which has adjustable stiffness where I can manually adapt my skii for terrain via a knob or mechanism. Second I wish to have interchangable component parts for adjusting surface areas of my skiis or interchange a damaged part with a spare. OR even foldable compact skiis which can be integrated in to desirable skii, for it would be way easier to carry to slopes while climbing.

It is good idea. Uros Obradovic

Great idea for reducing size of skis

good idea! bonibom

Thanks...I found only one United States Patent US4125273 on the subject matter while doing research. But the coupling arrangements seem to me to be a little cumbersome...and wonder what the feeling would be like to skii with these... myth

These days person can't think of anything unique. There will be always someone who tought about it first:) Uros Obradovic

I'm sure you have more ideas! Let's see them! bonibom

a good example is the UAV Cyber QUAD which can be a good reference point for designing a free ride robust version. myth

http://www.gizmag.com/hexakopter-microcopter-uav/14290/ this is awesome myth

the Hexakopter especially has an ability to stbilize weights and forces via inbuilt stabilizers to deal with wind correction, roll, etc. which is good for even carrying stuff or material transportation in a barren land. myth

hello! nice ideas:) bonibom

I like your ideas and I think you have a good chance for some prize;) Uros Obradovic

We will see...let the best man win :) myth
