Light Wave Surfboard by Evan Orensten

Surfers who like to be on the waves before dawn or after dusk now have a solution to improve safety and visibility. The Light Wave surfboard by Santa Cruz Light Wells has battery operated lights—a white light on the right or left side of the board (depending on which way you ride) provides visibility to other surfers. A headlight is activated when the nose of the board goes up to help you see the waves, and a light in the tail helps illuminate your wake so other surfers can see you (and your talent). Multicolor lights in the fins help you, well, pimp your ride.

The Light Wave Surfboard is available for $2,950 from Santa Cruz Light Wells

All shirts are printed on...
VIZcap
In response to underperforming health, sports, and medicinal drinks that lose potency as they sit on shelves, VIZcap is a new technology that releases vitamins, minerals and other supplements into the water at the time of consumption making for a more effective and potent beverage. The patent pending design is a twist-top consisting of an air-tight chamber which houses the supplements, and a plunger...
Bloomframe
Bloomframe, a window that turns into a balcony, was widely covered last month for making many an urbanite's dream come true. Designed by Amsterdam architect duo Hofman Dujardin, the prototype window frame opens with the push of a button. Other than the dirt problems posed by using a floor as a wall, the inconvenience of having to set up (and store) furniture and structural...
