The Revolute board stand is Patent Pending and the first official product release of GLYD O.
The following is an explanation of the board stand, its features and some history.
How it came about
When I was younger, I got a new surfboard and used to store it in the corner of my room. The room had varnished wooden floorboards. One day the board slipped out from under itself and crashed to the floor. It sparked an idea for wanting to build a board stand. I have revisited the idea many times over the years building various different stands, most of which were impractical in some way or another until now.
The Board Stand
My hope was that I could design a single board stand that was original and was both aesthetically pleasing and useful. This proved to be extremely challenging.
The name Revolute is in reference to the curved nature of the design. It is a minimal design that is clean and functional.
The Revolute board stand can securely hold any surfboard up to 7ft with the possible exception of some really deep v/swallow tails boards, such as some twin fins. It will also hold kiteboards, wakebaords etc. It is very sturdy and very well crafted. The materials are varnished birch ply, EVA foam (tail and rail protection) and stainless steel (fasteners).
It is adjustable and can be easily configured to suit the width and tail attributes of a board.
Looking great in any room as a modern piece of furniture it’s also a practical way to store, present and/or organise a board.
The revolute board stand is proudly Australian made.
Locally Made
I believe in local industry. It adds so much diversity, opportunity and independence to a local community and is such an important part of local culture, lifestyle and economy.
