We are using local harvested beech 1 mm (0,04 inch) thick veneer. All sheets are covered with special water resistant glue and stacking is based on our home recipe. All 15 layers are pressed with hydraulic press. In order to speed up the gluing process we heat up the glue via creating heat in aluminum […]
When developing an OLAF backpack, we knew that we will need to develop new gadgets that will be useful in everyday life when using our OLAF Urban. Although almost any bag can fit to the platform, we still wanted to make something new. Yes both, the bag and the wooden basket can fit to your […]
Our friend Eva is a very dynamic person and a busy traveller. As such, her OLAF just had to follow her personal style and preferences. First, she decided to fully personalise our OLAF scooter-suitcase, and design her own logo to be engraved on the board. She posted a job as a ‘Contest’ on Freelancer.com, the world’s […]
Dear OLAF backers & fans, After three years of tweaking with details, we finally almost buried ourselves with OLAF boxes. So, let’s make some space again. OLAF Urbans are ready to hit the road (actually backpacks arrived). Expect your postman to ring the doorbell really soon. We are shipping air mail.
Hi, it’s been a while but hey here we are. Let’s start with our URBAN MODEL. That’s what you can expect when OLAF finally arrives to your home in the following weeks.

OLAF’s manufacturing process OLAF Business models is fully made (both chassis and double telescopic handles) of aluminum tubes. Generally they are cut manually, in some cases also with computer laser cutter machine (see in our Kickstarter video how we cut some tubes via tubular laser cutter machine / find the shot at 2 min 10 […]
MECHANICS Mechanics with Urban model are based around these aluminum parts (see above). They serve as a key part to what wooden board and twin telescopic handles are mounted on. How do we make it?
In today’s update we will describe two segments of development we were working on last month. Solving the “last product bugs” (longer OLAF Business handle and a new OLAF Urban backpack) but mostly production related issues. Business case – in production We added a few more interior pockets (there are never enough pockets within your […]
We would like to share with you all important stages in OLAF’s life, however we will be short and precise, don’t worry:) The Urban backpack will change We are going to change backpack bottom and back side. Both new panels will be made out of combinations of EVA material and extra padding with specially chosen […]
When Boštjan asked me how we are shoot it to present it to the longboard and skate crowd I felt sceptical. It felt kind of wrong – coming from (some skate and much more) snowboard background I share the sentiment of the deck with 90 degree stance and have been mocking the monoskis and the […]
