Become a more informed Made in America shopper by reading our buying tips
The Tip is 'Labeling Tip 1'

Know Your Labeling - For products Made in America, the greater the US content the more American jobs required to produce it. So whenever possible choose the product with the highest percentage of U.S.content. US content must be disclosedon Made in USA textiles, automobiles, wool, and fur products. There is no law requiringmost other products to be marked or labeled made in USA, or, have any otherdisclosure about their amount of U.S. content.

Those manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content must comply with the FTC's Made in USA policy. Note: Imported products must have the country of origin on their label whileproducts partially Made in USA do not. For a product produced in the U.S. to be labeled made in USA, or claimed to beof domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be all or virtually all made in the U.S.

This would mean that all significant parts and processing that go into the product are of U.S. origin. The product should contain no (or negligible) foreign content. Made in the USA products create the greatest number of American jobs for our country. This is because the labor to produce the product, and the raw materials that go into the product, are created with American labor. For most products, there is no law requiring made in America labels, or any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on the label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. The product without the country origin on its label has some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

The Curve story starts with Nicholas Pryputniewicz, a frustrated snowcross racer. Tired of archaic ski technology, he spent hours after each race brainstorming and sketching a new ski that would solve many common problems such as darting, tracking, and pushing. In 2002 at the Rochester Institute of Technology, Nick met Sean Stumvoll, an avid motocross racer. Together, they cultivated ideas for a snowmobile ski that would combine very specific handling characteristics from each sport.

Both 3rd year Mechanical Engineering students at the time, they understood the importance of applying creative thinking and proven engineering principles to a design. Five years later, patents in pending, three distinct versions and thousands of trail and snow cross testing miles, has yielded a ski that is beyond anything they could have imagined.

The team's first attempt wasn't so uplifting. However, a vision of how a snowmobile should handle kept things alive. We made our first prototype in the CNC lab at RIT - Carved it out of a flat UHMW billet. We had to bend the tip up after. Sean recalls. The first ski had no variable geometry. It's no wonder we didn't get the results we expected. Nick recalls. Then one day the idea of actually taking the snow and changing its form hit. From that point forward, things would never be the same. The breakthrough in our technology is not that it works, it's how it works. Traditional skis pass the snow through a constant profile. In doing this, work is only done to the snow when a change of direction is induced by turning the bars. With constantly variable geometry, work is always being done even when going straight. Curve Industries uses the term rail to describe what shape their skis form. You can get away with constantly working the snow because of the extremely low friction coefficient. Drag is unnoticeable. It's like an ice skate. By compacting incoming snow and forming rails under the ski, energy transfer from the sled to the snow is greatly increased. When initiating and carrying through a turn, you want that energy to fall across an arc. If you sweep outside the arc because of pushing or tracking, you just lost a bunch of energy. To maintain speed, you have to get back on the gas, or worse, straighten out with the brake.

Through the process of bringing the skis to market, funding was slim and banks weren't an option. In college, everyone is broke. laughs Sean. Lets just say, steak wasn't on the grill. Nick adds, You know people believe in you when they throw down the cash. This wouldn't be possible without some people who truly believe.

Skis aren't the only thing on the minds behind Curve. We look at how things are currently, and then we ask ourselves, what can we do to improve? Sean adds, The motorcycle industry and particularly the off-road motorcycle industry has a highly developed product line. Bikes today are really awe inspiring pieces of equipment. Snowmobiles on the other hand, have a lot of room for improvement. Curve Industries is working behind the scenes to bring our favorite sport to a new level. Identifying a problem or need is only the beginning. The real challenge lies in forming a tractable solution. Says Nick and adds, We think people are really going to appreciate the products and ideas we bring to the table.
