composites in the world Distance It's not necessary now to be towed by a boat to catch waves: Radinn AB (Radical Innovation) revolutionizes the watersport industry with its Electric Powered Wakeboard. It all started 2012 when the founder Philip Werner, a Swedish wakeboarder who had an idea about making a electric powered wakeboard decided to make one as a sideproject while studying at Lund University. Wireless handcontroled, an efficient jet-propulsion motorizes this lightweight carbon fiber surfboard with a 30 minutes autonomy. The first Radinn electric powered wakeboard should be marketed in 2015. n More information: http://radinn.com/ Game of Plum Stool is a concept that organically combines structure, material, and form into one. Its aerodynamic form emulates the way that natural forms grow and evolve, always aiming for efficiency. The design aims to expose new uses for and approaches to carbon fibre as this material gives a new freedom to create not from strict geometries, but from usability needs and a sculptural approach. n More information: www.red-dot.sg Do not buckle The Carbon Design belt is handmade in Norway and is made using no metal so it will clear through any security screenings. The belt itself is made with a high quality black leather, while the buckle is made of 100% genuine carbon fiber. The carbon fiber has 7 layers of clearcoat for an ultra-glossy finish with a depth that only real carbon fiber can provide. The belt is available in three different sizes. n More information: www.carbonfibergear.com Next issue (n°92) Application Market Feature R&D Technology - Defense - BRIC - Thermoplastics JEC Americas - Injection - Nanocomposites - Filament winding - Simulation Special - Furniture JEC Americas 66 jec composites magazine / No91 August - September 2014http://www.radinn.com/ http://www.red-dot.sg http://www.carbonfibergear.com
