Eclipse V2 was my first complete craft as lead designer. I took the findings from first Eclipse project and applied it to the new hull design. With thermoforming, we enabled a whole new level of fit and finish, detail work was done on the rocker (top and bottom profiles on a side view) to allow the Eclipse to carve through the water while turning on a dime. The steering system was developed to be a simple and easy user interaction. 
Understanding thermoforming limitations was imperative to creating a flexible and adjustable surface model. Every detail from surface split lines to offset curves for the nose cone was implemented into the modeling strategy.

Inflatable Eclipse
The Inflatable Eclipse built on the work done during the iTrek series. Using our drop stitch inflatable material to create a stand-up pedal board that customers love. It allows all of the benefits of a standup paddle board without the hardship of trying to go into a strong wind.
