HDLD / GLIDE SPEED DISC DESIGN PARAMETERS 

  • FUNCTIONAL INTEGRITY : Have a design that works with no exceptions .

  • FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS : Increase board velocity , measured with GPS technology , establish and enhancement /  improve glide to the planning hull / surfboard . 

  • Make the HDLD / GLIDE speed disc's non intrusive to the existing design , such as in this case a surfboard . 

  • Having great ergonomic aspects to the design .

  • Design connection with surfboard or watercraft that is harmonious , meaning having great integration with mated design / surfboard .

  • Have great aesthetic value , Hi Tech / Innovative / Simple and to the point / aesthetic balance between form and function . 

  • SUMMARY FOR DESIGN PARAMETERS / The main goal is to create an equal balance between form and function, to have great functional integrity and aesthetic value . 

  RESEARCH AND DESIGN PROJECT / R&D / HDLD / GLIDE SPEED DISC'S ​

  • R&D GOALS : The intention of this research project is to test and develop the HDLD speed disc's . To keep an updated record of trials , compiling comprehensive statistics , documenting each trail towards having a better understanding of the HDLD DISC'S present and future applications with an end result to establish the potential of product viability .

  • NOTES ON VARIABLES / TRIAL LOG  : Statistics are measured using GPS technology , water temperature , wind speed , tides , highest board velocity , or velocities , distances traveled , number of waves ridden per R&D session , wave height , board type / model / size , tester name , model fins / size , disc model / size , used disc's for test , didn't use disc's for test .
