Ferrari brings the 2+2 concept to Paris Motorshow

It is already known that Ferrari is working at a „top-secret” vehicle by the cars fans, a new GranTurismo model, which is to be presented in OFerrari brings the 2+2 concept to Paris Motorshowctober at the Paris Motor Show, and even though it is classified as „secret” business, the profile magazines have already presented an idea of how the next Ferrari monster could look like or how it might just be. The very first rumors are saying that Ferrari will present a three-seated variant-which is very much to be doubted and was also officialy denied by Ferrari from the beginning.

In the second place, more plausible, rumors say that the model could be a coupe-cabriolet version with folding hard-top, to be powered by a V8 engine and bring out up to 450 horsepower. As Ferrari briefly mentioned so far, the upcoming 2+2 model will be the cheapest in the Ferrari line for the moment and it will have quite the same performances as the F430. From the design point of view all we know so far is that the new model will be 50cm shorter than the 612 Scaglietti.  For further details and keeping in touch with the automobile news, see the following: http://www.auto-power-girl.com/.

The Switchboard

There is a total new thing available now for winter sports which can totally revolutionize the profile market- it is the so-called “switchboard”.The SwitchboardThe double-hinged Switchboard could be seen as a natural evolution of the snowboard, but until that is proven, it could potentially end up as the kick-scooter of the ski slopes. This product from Holland is certainly an interesting one and it is worth trying the experience.

The Venomsnow Switchboard will feature a couple of short woodcore boards that are joined end-to-end on a double hinge, featuring lightweight footstraps on top, twin skates at the bottom of the rear board, and an aluminum steering bar on a pogo stick-like suspension unit which is mounted on the front board. The main idea behind the double hinge action is to enable switchboarders to bend the board up and down, as well as left or right in the middle to carve tight curves whilst following bumpy terrain. The inclusion of the steering bar is a great idea since it allows riders to initiate turns and haul the front end up in jumps. As for the suspension unit, the chances are it will help minimize the impact on your knees whenever you land a jump. It features a pair of loose straps front and back that enable your feet to slip in easily, even if you’re wearing nothing but a pair of simple sneakers. The back footstrap is mounted to a pivoting turntable, allowing your foot to twist to different angles for maximum comfort and handling. Just like a skateboard, the switchboard allows you to take your back foot off to kick yourself along as you’re going to gain more momentum. Whenever you need to store the switchboard, just fold down the hinged setup into a compact, portable size.
