The story behind "The Hip"
Being a new father is a great joy but one feature of our anatomy lets us down badly. We haven’t got any hips. The constant hitching up and re-adjustments all ending in ultimate failure. After about nine months of this, I was walking down to the pub one early summer evening. I had with me my old SLR camera, the strap slung across one shoulder and its bulky form resting high to the side on my hip. This time when I picked Richard up he came to rest on the camera. So this was what it was like to have a real hip. Why don’t I make one for myself to compensate for this careless evolutionary oversight? The very next day I rigged up an old bicycle saddle with the a luggage strap and a piece of scrap aluminium as a backplate.
This was very promising and I decided to set about making it into a product. It has changed from being a real bicycle saddle, through fibreglass and other prototypes, like the one shown here with Betty aged 2 years 4 months, to a surprisingly light but very strong cellular foam platform.
I hope you get as much pleasure from using "The Hip" as I did.
