![]() This is pretty sweet, I haven't been snowboarding for like 2 years and I live in Colorado (yes it makes me cry), but I would definitely put this on my board.
Question: Are we going to see you on Shark Tank with this product in the future?

Totally hear ya on the color combo, snowboarding is 90% how you look and 10% how you ride =D. We are starting simple but plan to offer a very wide range of colors in the future. And powder coated brackets so we can go any color on those as well. And asking if i sell in EC sounds like RMT entrapment sir =p Quote:

![]() So how much stuff did you lose snowboarding before you came up with the idea? [You must be logged in to view images.

![]() I've lost a few snowboard tools over the years, and one cell phone got fried from getting wet in one of my pockets. Biggest thing that got me thinking about this was I crashed pretty hard off a table top a few years back and cracked a rib on my snowboard tool. Wasn't fun.
As for your idea, fire away any time man. Learned a lot building up this company so i'm sure I can offer some advice if nothing else =)

![]() When I break my board hucking off a 40ft. cliff or flying through the trees that metal thing looks like it could go right through my leg..... Just a thought. Maybe plastic for the bracket.
Great idea! | ||

![]() Thanks Nirgon =D

Injection molding for the bracket is a very real possibility. It would reduce our cost on the bracket by 300%. Issue at this point is the initial investment is $10,000 to have the tooling done and once its done we can't change it. With Aluminum we are just working off CAD file and can adjust as we go and laser cut them out with the new changes. But Injection molding may be the direction we go sometime in the future. Thanks for the input!

![]() I just know I've hurt myself in unimaginable ways many times as well. Metal scares me.
I get the mold costs but ultimately I think that's where you'll end up based on cost per bracket. I would def. wait until you've done extensive testing at* 10k a mold :P | ||
