 * [|hockey skates] - spring-loaded skates have proven to give athletes a competitive advantage by increasing the contact duration of the skate blade during a stride while simultaneously allowing the skater to harness energy which would otherwise have been wasted.

 * [|two new wet suits designs] - “Diverter” for surfers has a bold black and white banding pattern to confuse sharks into believing that the wearer is actually a really gnarly tasting morsel. The “Elude” suit acts more like a traditional camouflage, and plays with the sharks perception of light and color. Once in the suit snorkelers are hidden from sharks by blending in the water column.
