BOMBARDIER
If we have already conquered the earth, the water, and the snow, how should we conquer the sky?
We created a new concept inspired by Bombardier’s Canadian brand and extreme sports products. We started by researching what had been done in this industry, which gave us plenty of information to work with.
Their target audience, adventurous people who enjoy extreme outdoor sports, led to our concept: “let people fly without wings.”
This concept inspired “Sky Bat,” an electric device that allows people to move in ways they never thought possible outside of dreams. Shaped like a bat, it supports one person at a time. The user lays down on it, glides, and enjoys the 20-minute adventure (the approximate duration of its battery).
Shown initially at the “Latin Design exhibit,” we recently found out that our vision was six years ahead of the competition. In 2014, a group of engineers created the “Back to the Future hoverboard”, a board that floats over a metal surface about 1 inch from the ground and supports the weight of a human. The development of this similar concept led us to say: We saw it first!

Seeking to inspire engineering teams, we proposed a new air board to the Canadian firm Bombardier @bombardier_jets that would float on any surface while practising your best acrobatic movements!
