Most definitely. I too would love to get into some sport-related work. Mostly just on the side as Im happy with what i do now. Have you had any internships? I found that you may take on a couple before you find a good position. Also most employers will want to see that youve had a few in-house positions during or right after school before they will bring you board.

I do packaging and branding full-time, as well as other hardgoods. Also some illustration/graphic and some housewares on the side. Yourself?

I absolutely love to see process in frame building and being an industrial designer, I especially love seeing sketches and raw development work! Very nicely done start to finish. Great work on colorways too!

Shimano Prototype Chainguide Debuts at Sea Otter

That honeycomb mold-coring structure seen from the back side reminds me of what E13 has been doing. I wonder if there's going to be any design/manufacturing 'hard feelings'

I'm interested in doing consumer product design. Sports-related would be the most appealing to me but it comes down to what I can find, there isn't a lot of that near Toronto and I need a CO-OP next year. But when I'm done school I will most likely relocate somewhere else. Any advice?
