Speedlobster
The product combines a tent with a luggage trailer for bicycles, contributing to recreational activities and lifestyles.
In the Speedlobster, the tent and a trailer merge into one construction. While opening the trailer, a geodetic tent is unfolded. The purpose of the construction is to integrate the trailer into the tent in such a way, that it can be comfortably used for further utilities. The opened cover forms the solid back plane of the tent, where different accessories, such as a water-bag can be secured. The bottom part of the trailer is a bag for the user to have direct access to his or her luggage. The tailor made flax fibres that are used as the material allows for maximum stability with the minimal material input, reducing the overall weight by 25%.
The Speedlobster gives the traveller the possibility to spontaneously decide where to stay and pitch a tent.

Finding of the Jury:
This product is a nice way of allowing people to take their camping equipment with them when they go on long distance bicycle trips. It elegantly and conveniently integrates a spacious tent into a small and arrow dynamic package that can be quickly detached from a bicycle. The model is very well developed and can be used and tested immediately.
More work can be done to refine the products, fabrication, aesthetics and arrow dynamics.
