It started with a Facebook comment.

I know next to nothing about mountain climbing, but I was fresh off the high of watching Olympic athletes do the impossible. Why not design a new product based off of one request?

First stop: Research.

Based on Google Image search results, a helmet, rope, and pickaxe look to be the three pieces of essential gear, so that’s what I focused on. Next came some designing, prototyping, refining, and finally, packaging.

And that’s how our latest addition, the Climbing Set, came to existence in less than a week. What should we make next?
