" Rebelt tip "

When we were in the process of designing Rebelt we chose not to add some plastic parts to attach the leg straps hanging free ends❗
😇We felt it would most likely be less comfy.

🥰BUT now when you have found your settings, there is a way to clean up the leg strap hanging parts!
Esthetics are not the core but nice to have.🤓

A small tutorial !
Basically fold the free end into half and feed it back to the buckle. Secure and clean. Takes 5min of you time 😊

" The WHY philosophy "

When we think about a new item, the ❓WHY is the more important question to ask. And there are many of the why questions even before any moves are done to proceed.

Like:
🤷‍♂️WHY is something like that needed in this already over filled world?
🧐WHY would it be different to some other products already existing?

When we made the Merion beanie - the WHY was answered by super quality and fitting to our activities. Plus it looks good on everyone. 🇪🇺 European made of course.

☀️❄️When the neck scarf was created, it was simple - a lot of neck scarfs are some flimsy thin ones, serving just as cheap marketing tools. We wanted one that fits our activities with dogs from France to Scandinavia. Meaning thicker, denser, good looking, warmer, soft and with good stretch. Our Portuguese partners made it happen!

As our products are European made we also opt for fair pricing - some might disagree but we feel good about it in our souls!

That is a look into the WHY philosophy.

" Fashion? "

Emilie was out racing with the Rebelt - super light but INVISIBLE?Now that might be the new level of canicross fashion. You dont even know its existence.

Kidding, we dont do fashion - 99% function and the more hardcore, the better.

" Where did they go? "

The Rebelt belts are leaving us too fast. 😥Almost would like to look at them longer.🤓
🕒Second patch is coming to us as we post this but after we need a small moment to reload our raw material stock - TO MAKE MORE for everyone!➕

🇪🇺And of course, they are made in EU and finished by us!

" Hello ReBelt "

Re-think
Re-design
Re-define

Lumac Rebelt was made to be the purebred race belt in our offering - everything non essential was striped down. We ended up with 1️⃣3️⃣0️⃣gr weight(including attachment shackle), superior breathability ❗️, extra padded ⚠️, highly adjustable belt.

Rebelt has leg straps that attach to the hip belt from both sides - but the geometry was worked up from zero. We believe this solution makes the belt stay better in its place, following runners🏃‍♀️🏃 natural movements.
All adjustments possible are done by downward movement👇 - which seemed logical and user friendly☺️.

🔁Front cord that is a wear part can be easily changed.

🔀Every material has been chosen for function, durability and its weight. All plastic details are provided by our partner Duraflex - known for their quality👌.

" Snow -》 Safety "

We dont forget our musher friends either here.
In north snow❄❄ has fallen and we need to think about safety.⚓

So our super starting lines that went to several Finnmarksløpet and Femundløpet with Team Birgitte Næss are making a return.🔄

High strenght↔️, high wear resistance and high visibility in blue♂️ and pink♀️!
Standard measure 8.5m with loop sewn in our workshop!❗

Be wild, be safe!

" The process "

As the introduction of the belt comes closer, we figured to share a little bit of the process behind.🥸
Many re-starts - starting from zero, many modifications and re-designs and a looOOT of communication📞 with our team and testers.
We tried some mesh options, some different design, dyneema straps etc but ended up with completely something different with rather custom materials.😵‍💫

There are no beauty images but the raw truth how communication works in our product development phase as all our athletes are far away from us.❗️

Enjoy!

" The moment "

🙄Long have we been waiting for this specific box to arrive to us!
Like Christmas came early.🥰

Over 2.5 years our team has put their energy 😖into that product - so many dissapointments😭 but now we got it!😊😇

🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️Lets run more comfy.

Now the introduction to prepare and then they are for sale!💰📦📫

" Specialized "

Even many customers love colors🌈 our biggest pride is to specialize. 🤯👀 So the human - dog bond could be more fulfilling. 👫🐕

Team lines in many colors with years of experience behind and the notorious Noring collars which are racer favourites - we still seek to improve.🧐
It is the details and our experience what allows us to be successful with products like that.🧘‍♀️
But is a product ever finished or perfect?⁉️

Thank you all for being with us!

" Clarification - 8Feet "

8Feet is the name we gave our stick solution - two dogs on the line, eight feet running 🐶🐻‍❄️

❎In the 8Feet series we have three main modification.
1️⃣One for scooter/bike lines (12.8cm wide stick - short cord part)
2️⃣One for team line lead dogs (12,8cm wide stick - long cord part)
3️⃣One for team line team/wheel dogs (22cm wide stick)

BUT the tug line lengths need to be made according to the line, where 8Feet will be used.

⭕️Of course, clients can get just the stick, stick with cord attachment or the 💯% full 8Feet system with tug lines included.

" Stick it or not "

❓Did you know that Lumac provides also some of the lightest stick spreaders for team lines? Tested in Norway by our team members!

We have 2️⃣two different spreaders, one short for lead dogs and one longer one for team/wheel dogs. ❗️

They are mostly pretty easy to attach to existing line sets. Very light and made entirely from aluminium.
You can get just the stick spreader, spreader with rope attachment or spreader with tug lines. 🧐

❤️❤️The decision is for the client to make - not everyone likes "stick lines" but some love them!

Ask your closest reseller for more info!

" UL "

🪶In many communities UL defines Ultra Light - at Lumac we consider low weight a must!❗️

With light weight come different aspects to consider - one notably, life span of flat elastics. ⏳

When we make gear lighter, we take away material form it - sounds logical. But then we also take away wearing capacity -> less material to wear and endure the stress. 🤔

That said, as dogs seem to get bigger and more powerful, it is very important to verify your equipment - specially 🐕‍🦺🐕‍🦺🛴2-dog scooter lines. If the line shows very high wear - the use of the lines should be limited.
‼️The age of the line does not have any importance - but the conditions🌦☀️❄️💧 it is used and stored. As well the intensity (how many kilometers used, how often, how big/strong dogs) It is no point to compare our products to other similar ones - they are different and have different service life.

Our goal is to provide as light products as possible with best performance to weight ratio!

" Choose your rainbow - for snow "

❄Tried and trusted from Scandinavia to south Europe.

🌈 Colorful bunch of team lines and splitters going to Finland.

As light, strong and colorful as we possibly could make line sets for up to 14 dogs 🐕🐺

" Choose your tools "

🧐As people who like to spend their time with their 🐶dogs, choosing their gear, we take time to choose from what we make our gear.

😍One of the most exciting things for us is material science. 🕵️‍♂️
We search for all sorts of stuff, order samples and then touch them, try to break them, see how they look in reality etc.
⏱It is very exciting but some times takes a lot of time. Average time to get samples takes from 2 weeks to several months.

👨‍🎓We feel that teaches us a lot and allows us to develop and produce top products, that fit Scandinavian and Western-European demands.☀️🌧⚡️❄️

" What the hell is going on? "

Many of you may be asking that as you wait for the canicross belt to come out to public sales. Or a harness. There are some samples which have been rotating in social and races for quite long time.

As a family company, we can talk as people to people. And we like it. This is no cry story but a story of transparency.

So yeah, things went a bit side ways for a moment. As you have noticed, we have made a choice to produce things in Europe. In our personal life it is important to follow our foot print and same idea we try to transmit into Lumac.

Now when you get out of the theoretical part - it is much harder to find a manufacturer that works with our size company, is affordable and has good quality. The process finding them and sampling is painfully long - not only for you but also for us!
That said, we will not introduce any product that is not finished or sufficiently good for our taste. We want to be proud of our work.
If it takes longer, well, then it takes longer.

Visiting Sweden of course assured us, that when you are stubborn as a ram, you can produce in Europe. Price level of products is different but its doable.
Woolpower in Östersund is one great sample. Which we were lucky to visit :)

" Norway bond "

Not very long ago we had to explain customers if our thin lines are able to hold strong dogs?

We always said YES!

Now we are getting more and more demand from top teams and what pleases us a lot, from Norwegians.

Here few lines made to Kjetil Haukland and Sissel Wolf Mølmen.

In Norway have provided line set to Team Leegaard, Hege Ingebrigtsen, Rune Haugmo, Sofi Nyström and others.

And more to be made!

" We love boxes also " Lumac - For stronger bonds!

" Orange with touch of black " Just before shipping out..final inspection. Last 2 weeks of work more or less on that one. Offering a nice selection and choise to customers in Switzerland. Figured to share as it looks real nice :) Lumac - For stronger bonds!

" Target " The Foot Armour sock history started with two very special targets. First one was - we needed socks for our long distance dogs who were training a lot on ground. We had very low snow years. Using cordura socks jus got too expensive and annoying. Second targets was - that mid distance dogs could run about 16km continuously. We were told, such socks did not exist on the market. And also we were not keen on leaving any rubber particles to nature - before we tested with polyurethane coating etc. Current solutions seems to check many boxes with one go :) Lumac - For stronger bonds!

" Lucky one " Congratulations for a new Reaper! Please contact us via PM :) Lumac - For stronger bonds!

" Reaper " We get a lot of questions about Reaper anchor. Does it fit to my anchor holder. Answer is compex, it some what fits to some sled but to many Danler sleds it does not fit. At the moment we are not in the liberty to guarantee where it fits. It is a little bit trial and error. There will be a limited amount of those light and compact hooks going to market this year but we are not yet done. More information is needed We dont give up yet.
