We Invented the first Blue Chip SUP Specific Quick Release Waistbelt

In 2014, we designed and started manufacturing the Blue Chip Quick Release Waistbelt which was the first SUP Specific quick release waistbelt to fulfil our requirements for use in rivers, streams, fast flowing and white water. Having designed our own Blue Chip Quick Release Waistbelt.
We asked various manufactures for samples and soon realised that the only way to ensure and maintain the quality required was to make them here in our workshop where the quality can be guaranteed. Another great benefit of making them ourselves is that we can make any improvements to our design / materials instantly.
