Pretty cool, Kevin. The close ups are good, but I'm still trying to figure out
the orientation. How about adding a shot with more of you in it, so we can see
which arm it's on (in some it looks like you're a lefty, with it on your right
arm). Maybe one with you in prone position on the mat? What parts are carbon
fiber, and which parts are web strap? By the way, a Velcro closure (through a
slot and doubled back onto itself) does a fine job of securing a cuff, plenty
good for racing. This thing looks like a bit of a project to put on.... Also,
it looks like you have it cinched down really tight (as in TOO tight) in the
last photo. No wonder your arm was going to sleep! I would certainly not
want to ski or run with a tourniquet on my arm.
The idea of a rigid portion of the cuff to prevent transmission of the pulse
is a good one. Do you do biathlon races, yourself?
