  • Rando – Introducing the World's First Ski Suit in 3-Layer Gore-Tex® Active
    Press release February 2013 Rando – introducing the world’s first ski suit in 3-layer Gore-Tex® Active Perhaps the secret of Randonée lies in the contrast of struggling up the mountain only to later enjoy the ride down. Perhaps it is the science of finding snow that no one else has broken before. Or perhaps just to enjoy the vast landscape. Regardless of the reason, the activity places special demands on the equipment. For the 2013 winter season Haglöfs is introducing a new extensive collection for skiers who want to explore far away from the lift system and pistes. All of these products, which are gathered under the RANDO family, were developed with a focus on safety and being able to quickly and easily adapt the clothing based on changing weather conditions or whether you are headed up or down the mountain. One of this year’s big releases is RANDO AS SUIT – the world’s first ski suit in 3-layer Gore-Tex® Active. During its product development stage, Haglöfs focused on taking advantage of the properties of Gore’s Active technology in order to be able to offer the lightest and the most comfortable, waterproof and breathable skiing garment on the market. RANDO AS SUIT has an unembellished design, but with all of the product features a skier would expect, such as a helmet-compatible, adjustable 3-way hood, a DWR-treated outer surface and pockets strategically placed so that they are accessible even when carrying a backpack. The suit also has long, reinforced and waterproof zippers at the armpits and along the thighs in order to maximize ventilation.

  • Gcse Marking Scheme
    GCSE MARKING SCHEME SUMMER 2016 DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY: TEXTILES 4131/01 © WJEC CBAC Ltd. INTRODUCTION This marking scheme was used by WJEC for the 2016 examination. It was finalised after detailed discussion at examiners' conferences by all the examiners involved in the assessment. The conference was held shortly after the paper was taken so that reference could be made to the full range of candidates' responses, with photocopied scripts forming the basis of discussion. The aim of the conference was to ensure that the marking scheme was interpreted and applied in the same way by all examiners. It is hoped that this information will be of assistance to centres but it is recognised at the same time that, without the benefit of participation in the examiners' conference, teachers may have different views on certain matters of detail or interpretation. WJEC regrets that it cannot enter into any discussion or correspondence about this marking scheme. © WJEC CBAC Ltd. GCSE DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY: TEXTILES SUMMER 2016 MARK SCHEME SECTION A Question On Question Overall paper Totals TOTAL 1 (a) No answer or an incorrect answer. 0 Only acceptable answer: Batch Production 1 1 1 (b) (i) No answer or an incorrect answer. 0 Answers that indicate an understanding of the reason for detachable legs can be awarded a mark based on: removing them would make it easier to wash the item; easier to pack it way when not in use; less complicated/easier to manufacture.

  • Skiing for Leg Amputees
    The War Amps For Your Information Tel.: 1 877 622-2472 Fax: 1 855 860-5595 Skiing for Leg Amputees Outriggers Outriggers are used for stability. They resemble ski poles (or forearm crutches) with mini skis attached to the end of the poles. Three Track Method Outriggers Below and above knee amputees who do not wear an artificial limb while skiing use the Three Track method – skiing on the sound leg only and using outriggers. Après-ski Leg For above knee amputees who ski using the Three Track method, the necessity of donning the prosthesis again after skiing can be tiresome. One above knee amputee had a ski peg designed to facilitate mobility in Après-ski Leg the ski lodge – it had a socket designed to fit right over his adapted ski suit. Ferrier Coupler The Ferrier Coupler allows an amputee to wear an artificial limb to the ski hill, pull up the ski pants leg and remove the lower part of the leg below the socket. The lower leg can simply be reattached to the socket after skiing to provide mobility and independence in getting to and from the ski lodge and while in the lodge. The socket is then kept on as a stump protector on Ferrier Coupler Prosthetic Limbs and Devices Prosthetic the slopes. ProCarve The ProCarve by Ottobock is a great solution for recreational and professional skiers and snowboarders with lower limb amputations. ProCarve can also be used for other sports with similar motions such as wakeboarding or waterskiing. The foot and knee combination is suitable for knee disarticulation and above knee amputees, while below knee amputees can take ProCarve advantage of the ProCarve foot component.
