Pool-Sprint

Pool-Sprint is a new method of exercising in water. The equipments in Pool-Sprint are the shoes and a running base in the swimming pool. The function of the equipment is to avoid slipping and thereby making scrambling from the bottom of the swimming pool possible.

Pool-Sprint is my own innovation and the equipment used in Pool-Sprint have a patent pending. The patent is mainly related to the structure of the sole of the shoe and the surface of the running base. Designium and Tuli-program have supported Pool-Sprint by grants for the patent application and for building the prototypes.

Funding: Designium, Tuli-ohjelma
Industrial Designer: Hannu Kähönen
