We've been trying to develop a new, simpler marathon foot pump for kayaks. We aim to keep the cost below $50 and we're still sorting out some kinks (literally - no pun intended) before we decide if we can mass market it.
Instead of copying existing designs, we attempted to design this from scratch and with the least number of parts to make it easier to maintain.
We also want all the parts to be easily accessible (instead of having everything behind the footboard) so that there isn't a need to unmount your footrest every time the valve gets clogged.
We're testing it now - initial testing has been very encouraging - before we think about a go to market approach.
