evolution of this new compact safety product improves the beneficial
outcomes for industries, almost across the board... We look forward
to reporting soon on
the outcomes of our new relationship and future market
exposure of this revolutionary product, of which so
many of you have been asking for...
Thank you for your
patience - we believe we are almost there!!!
October 2008
Have successfully
delivered custom modified beta units for wetsuits to a Major Sea and Animal
park within the United States. This was a special custom order, that
we do not plan to repeat with other businesses.
We are in the process of looking to sell the patent and business to a
company with a proven track record in manufacturing, and product
introduction. We are looking for sound companies who can leverage and
promote this product in the best of every manner. * The product has
been sought out by Medical, Rescue & Safety, Sporting, Fire Departments,
Military, and all forms of water recreation users, from general swimmers, to
Kayakers, to Body-Surfers. Its appeal has been universal, from both
land and sea.
May-June, 2007
Major Corporation orders prototypes in a modified form for the purpose of integrating
into wetsuits. This new design will provide improved safety, given their animal
trainers unique working conditions. This Corporation recognized the miniaturized
unique importance of our product after reviewing every emergency air system
available. Testing has been successfully completed. Work is now
underway to customize their wetsuits to house Second Breath.
January, 2007
NOAH Second Breath USPTO Patent No. 7156092, issued on
01/02/2007.
A Purchase Order of 2000
units of Second Breath has been issued by a major U.S. corporation. Another
major U.S. sporting goods retailer and a number of U.S. and international
distributors and wholesalers are in place as we finalize the last round of
product upgrades, specs and manufacturing details and contracts.
December, 2006
Second Breath has been tested very successfully in multiple markets, with firm
interests to purchase, distribute and license the product. We are now ready to
begin production. This production stage will also see additional improvements in
ease of use and weight reduction by moving to polymers from aluminum. We are
currently seeking financial partners to move forward. If you have any desire to
be a part of a ground breaking new invention, with a demand market in place,
please contact us.
A Major U.S. corporation
makes contact
with us showing great interest in Second Breath as a smart and novel device for
their staff's safety needs.
July, 2006
NOAH Second Breath receives USPTO Patent approval.
September-December, 2005
Since the completion of the two upgraded models in September, Second Breath has
been successfully tested by well-known professional big wave surfers in Hawaii
as well as military-affiliated and other safety/rescue professionals. In the
words of one professional, "...this is 100% go!" Minor improvements and upgrades
will be underway.
July, 2005
We are one step closer to completing the upgraded Second Breath. Here's a sneak
preview. A testing and validation phase will take place shortly. Stay tuned.

redesigned for easy operation. |

June, 2005
For those of you
who have been waiting patiently for the upgraded Second Breath, the wait is
almost over. It's looking great, we're very excited. We are currently
putting the finishing touches on the full model as well as the smaller, more
streamlined model. A testing and validation phase will follow. For those already
on our distributor and partner list, more information will be forthcoming in the
coming weeks. Please bear with us just a little longer - quality and innovation
can't be rushed, and shouldn't. Check back soon for further update.

February, 2005
As a result of our
recent trade shows and invaluable customer input, along with our continual
commitment to review and upgrade our products, we are making several
improvements to enhance the reliability and ease of use of Second Breath.
Production will begin once these upgrades are made and tested. These upgrades
include:
▪ Streamlining the size and weight of current model
▪ Changing the current Velcro strap to the more secure snap-in buckle
▪ Improving the durability and reliability of the
mouthpiece
▪ Enhancing the integrity against any potential for
air leak
▪ Developing a second lighter, smaller model

January, 2005
We are currently seeking to secure exclusive distributors for Second Breath.
Plans are underway to finalize distributorship terms and other details. We
expect to be awarding our worldwide exclusive distributorships within the next
60 days. Interested parties should submit contact info and a brief description
of your business and geographic coverage. We will contact you with details of the distributorship
and keep you abreast of the progress.

The Super Show: 17-19 January, 2005
The World of Sports Innovations
Orlando, Florida, Orange County Convention Center
www.thesupershow.com
Another great showing! The reception toward Second Breath was equally
enthusiastic, this time from a broader, overall sports market, not just water sports. The responses from attendees, buyers and other exhibitors were
identical, echoing that of the Surf Expo earlier in the month (see below). While
the responses were overwhelmingly enthusiastic from within the US, the Super
Show also attracted a greater international presence than the Surf Expo,
providing us with invaluable feedback and insight into numerous overseas
markets. Aside from one gentleman who flew in from Scandinavia specifically to
see us and Second Breath, we also received enormous interests from Asia, Latin
America, Europe and Australia and New Zealand.

Surf Expo: 7-9 January, 2005
Orlando, Florida, Orange County Convention Center
www.surfexpo.com
The response toward the public debut of Second Breath was overwhelmingly
positive. Show-attendees and other exhibitors were seeking us out during the
three days via word-of-mouth. We received some great input and feedback from
potential users, as well as invaluable connections and trade possibilities.
Quite a few people (including other inventors) thought Second Breath is the
single most innovative product they had seen in recent years. Aside from the
functionality of Second Breath, Surf Expo visitors were also very taken by the
overall design and hi-tech appeal of brushed aluminum. We've also discovered some
unexpected new user segments, such as free-diving, spear fishing and deep powder
skiing, among others. In addition to the water sports applications, lifeguards,
fire rescue professionals and others involved in the rescue segment also showed
tremendous interest and enthusiasm.
