FOLDABLE SUP

This SUP design prioritizes cost-effective material usage and minimal body part variations. Its unique folding mechanism allows easy transformation from a rectangular shape to its final form by simply folding and securing the sections in place. The structure consists of four distinct parts, with screws enabling 90-degree movement for two pieces and fastening the rest. However, the cutout lines on the SUP surface may require additional inserts for a smooth finish. Future development will focus on enhancing material efficiency and aesthetics. Key areas include refining the SUP's ideal shape, fin design, and incorporating construction ribs to minimize weight. Joint optimization is also crucial, with exploration of alternative, more efficient, and practical joint designs.
