Activity 3.1.1

Design Elements/Principals: The dumpster diver

• The shape allows the surfboard to cut through the water a certain way
•  Color does nothing for the functionality but adds to the ascetic appeal, stickers allow rider to advertise the companys that employ him or her
• The smooth texture allows water to slide off of the board with little resistance
• 
  The offset balance of foam inside of the boardthat the board does not bog down when driving down the line
• The proportion allows for the rider to ride much smaller waves

Design elements: The Traction pad

• The shape allows a rider to prop his foot against the back of the track pad and aid in staying on the board
• The texture allows the riders foot to stay on the board
• the weight of the trackpad allows for little variation in how the board feels with out a trackpad
• color adds to the ascetic value making the track pad memorable

Design Elements: The leash

• Velcrow on the straps allows for the leash to stay on both the board and the rider
• lightweight flexible chord allows for the rider to stay in contact with his surfboard even if he or she falls but not slow the rider down to much
• color makes the leash memorable
• the evenness in the diameter of the chord causes there to not be an excess of stress in any one area of the leash.

Design Thinking

Here are some notes from
D. MODES

• Empathize
• Find out what the customer whants/needs
• Define
• Figure out how to solve that problem
• Ideate
• Brainstorm, remember there are no bad ideas
• Prototype
• Prototyping is getting ideas and explorations out of your head and into the physical world
• Test
• refine prototypes and solutions
• big iterative process, not necesarily the last step
• Use feedback capture grid(+,?,!,change)
