. ispo.com : KAORIGIN – Customized Ski and Board - 21 May 2009 - 12:45
DuPont Personal Design Award winter 2009
Tired of the same recycled ski and snowboard designs? For everyone who's looking for unique graphics but requires the technical know-how of the established brands, KAORIGIN is just the brand. The brand’s team of young designers gives winter sporting equipment a facelift and brings a creative touch to your winter holiday.
You can select a ski or snowboard and choose your favorite design from a large archive, or you can even send in your own graphic, which turns your ride into your own personal canvas. In quality, the stylish prints are similar to the originals. The design isn't applied to a sticker but, as in the conventional printing process, on a piece of synthetic material that is then attached to the “virgin” original. The boards are resistant to scratches, and a small metal plate close to the binding displays the owner of the ski. KAORIGIN provides a new approach to customizing that allows the customer to be the creative force as well.
