This is just a crude early version. Eventually the tiles will be significantly smaller, quieter, and less prone to ripping toes off.

But the Toe-ripping is a major selling point!

Do you have any idea how much it’ll cost to reprint all those pamphlets?

I wonder if a layer of Ripstop over the tiles would reduce performance. I could imagine fabric being a less expensive option than R&Ding more proprietary tech like making the tiles even smaller.

Edit: Glossed over the fact the tiles rotate. Nevermind me.
