# Pivoting Grip Implements The Rotating Spade Shovel Incorporates Customizable Ergonomics By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-11-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rotating-spade-shovel References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2013/11/08/alas-an-ergonomic-shovel/) & [bossetools](http://bossetools.com/spade-shovel/) It's unrealistic for a manufacturer of tools to develop a range of dozens of different models of any given apparatus in order to suit its different users. The Rotating Spade Shovel comes in a series of five, but these are intended for separate landscaping tasks rather than the distinctive builds of the people employing them. The Boose Tools products do, however, accommodate the individual. The rake, the hoe and the spades have two sets of handgrips that allow for a much better grasp and more power consequently. The key feature of every Rotating Spade Shovel is its swiveling grip that spins a whole 360 degrees within its round ball-bearing mechanism. You can shift this handle to your ideal angle, fix it in place, and carry out your [landscaping duties](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/master-x-vison) in the most comfortable and [ergonomic way](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ergomatically-shaped-scissors-ergomatically-shaped-scissors-with-a-bat-desi). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 5% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Customizable Ergonomics:** The trend of developing tools with customizable ergonomics provides users with improved comfort and efficiency. - **Swiveling Grip:** The trend of incorporating swiveling grips in tools allows users to adjust the handle angle for optimal performance. - **Multiple Handgrips:** The trend of including multiple handgrips in tools enables users to have a better grasp and exert more power. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Landscaping:** The landscaping industry can benefit from tools with customizable ergonomics and swiveling grips, allowing for more efficient and comfortable work. - **Manufacturing:** The manufacturing industry can explore the development of tools with multiple handgrips to enhance user experience and productivity. - **Tool Design:** The trend of customizable ergonomics and swiveling grips presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the field of tool design, enhancing user comfort and usability. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rotating Ergonomic Nail Clippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rotating-clipper.md) - [Joystick Screwdriver Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bits-tool.md) - [Versatile Kitchen Multi-Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-multitools.md) - [Innovative Camping Multi-tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camping-multitools.md) - [Swappable Component Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eyeq-switchdisc.md) - [Customization-Friendly Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gerber-centerdrive.md) - [Modular Customization Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roxon-flex.md) - [Adaptable Overlander Multitools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heavyduty-multitool.md) - [Advanced Modular Multi-Tool Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flex-shears.md)
