Francesco Sommacal, a graduate of the Faculty of Design and Art at the Free University of Bozen - Bolzano, received the prestigious red dot: luminary design award in Singapore on 28th November.
He submitted his "360" project in the design concept category.
The "360" is a re-definition of the extreme sport of skateboarding.
Riding diagonal to the direction of travel over asphalt, stones or grass, the user can - like on a snowboard - steer by shifting his or her body weight.
The versatility of this "summer snowboard" means that boarders everywhere can now enjoy an extra season's fun.
