In
the mid-1990s, inline skating was at its peak. People were no longer simply
riding on bike paths, but beginning to go off path and onto rougher surfaces
such as bricks and cobblestones, or any surface that they happened to come
upon. Shockz inline skates had developed a unique suspension system for
riding off-road, but had only a crude prototype that was neither presentable
to investors nor designed for manufacturing. They came to Henninge and asked
us to create the next beta-generation prototype that would be used for user
testing, distribution to investors, and patent support. The components should
be fully documented so that they could sell the technology as is. They wanted
a prototype that would be just one step away from manufacturing. |
