Poster: A snowHead
|
Morning All,
So one of the recurring hot topics is helmets - do you or don't you etc etc
Don't want to go down that line per se, but wanted to test the water on a slight variation....
Helmet wearers - I am assuming that a lot of you choose to wear a helmet for safety reasons - as we all know, alpine activities can be dangerous and nobody wants a bump on the noggin.
Body armour wearers - again, a personal choice, offering protection to the back and I guess internal organs, for all the huckers and park gurus amongst us.
Do you not think it unwise to not allow the same amount of protection to the rest of your body? I know many more people who have suffered serious injuries to upper and lower limbs, which have often resulted in complex surgery and even ended future skiing aspirations, yet no-one seems to wax lyrical about this with a holier-than-thou attitude as they do with helmets.
What I am proposing is buying up a load of industrial drainpipe, tailoring it to lengths to suit, adding a few trendy go-faster stickers, and charging an load of cash to the gadget hungry marketplace. (Naturally a percentage will go to 's). The product will fit from your thigh to the top of your boot, preventing any nasty knee injuries or broken legs. No more bruises from snow boarders knocking your legs on a chair lift, no more concern over having the latest colour trousers, as you will be 100% waterproof, windproof, and insulated to even the most extreme conditions. For the upper limb version, loads of room to store specially designed hydration packs meaning no more removing of rucksacks to get on the lift. No more broken scaphoid, wrist or arm - think of the confidence you will build knowing you are indestructible as you teeter along the slopes, shouting and waving your poles angrily at anyone who has the audacity to ski past you....
The only downside I can see is that you will look a little like the Tin man.....
I am offering you 10% of the company for £3.6Million.....

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I offer a patent to adopt used/discarded sewage pipes for the required raw material for a knock down price of only £2 millions.
Personally I don't think it stinks.

Why not a one-piece whole body version (for the phlegmatic English who don't need the more continental arm waving option)?

Surely you are overcompicating the original idea - does it need those namby pamby knee and elbow joints?
