Lights & Sports: LED Snowboarding Suit

We have featured lights incorporated into sports before (surfing, skateboards, foosball table). This time we have William Hughes wearing a full body LED snowboarding suit. The LED suit acts as a massive torchlight, for when William goes down the French slopes in pitch black night. There is an amazing, and surreal, video (below) capturing William’s run down the hill in the LED suit.

“I was really drawn to the idea of a lone character made of light surfing through darkness,” – Jacob Sutton – Fashion Photographer and Film Maker
