Collapsible Carbon Fiber Surfboard Concept

Collapsible Carbon Fiber Surfboard Concept

With summer (not in Australia anyways) coming up, it is time to hit the beaches and go surfing. Nick Notara has developed this collapsible concept design of a surfboard that breaks down into a couple of pieces, making it a snap to transport around without compromising on its structural integrity, thanks to the use of a carbon fibre backbone and two self centering, constant loading pin joints. In addition, you will be able to enjoy a "hot-swappable" fin configuration that allows one to set up the type of wave being surfed. Won't do much in the event of a shark attack though.
