G-RO

Hey everyone. I'm hunting this because two years ago my friend @kenhertz told me all about the carry-on luggage that he'd been dreaming up for a while. Since then he's been hard at work with a talented team to make the best carry-on possible, and as a frequent traveler I'm pretty stoked. It just hit Kickstarter and was funded in about 6 hours, now at 3x its goal two days later. Normally I wouldn't just shill for my friends, but that's not what this is—this design finally makes me think there's a better carry-on to be had…and it's coming.

Also, after watching the video, all I could think was "man, it's pretty cool when you take a really talented designer and give him/her the time to attack a super old, non-sexy problem." We need more of that.

thank you both. although i have spent most of my life helping other people bring their dreams to fruition, this is a first for me - and it has been a LONG road. As someone much smarter than me said recently, "innovation starts with empathy." I feel your pain. Ask me anything!!
