Whether playing outdoor concerts, marching band performances, or wedding
 gigs on the beach, wind is a verifiable nightmare for flute players. 
Win-D-Fender solves this problem once and for all. <br></div>
		
Lightweight and comfortable, <b>Win-D-Fender</b> installs easily and 
safely secures to the flute, shielding the lip plate from all directions
 while not interfering with the player's air stream. <b>Win-D-Fender</b>'s
 ventilated design helps limit condensation, while enhancing sound 
projections so the flute may be heard outdoors like never before. <br>

Let the Flutes be heard!

 Aided Design (CAD), Human Centered Design (HCD) and Design for Six 
Sigma (DFSS) methodologies standardized in the automotive, aerospace, 
defense and construction industries were fundamental in the Win-D-Fender
 design. 

<br><br>

The Win-D-Fender represents thousands of hours of engineering 
calculations, computer simulations, user trials, and laboratory 
validation.  Every feature, contour and curve is designed to optimize 
engineering performance:
<ul><li>The exterior shape maximizes wind protection and promotes aerodynamic wind flow around the Win-D-Fender.</li><li>The interior profile manages turbulence for seamless sound generation.</li><li>The unique shape is designed to provide a personal "sound mirror".</li><li>Every surface and feature is scrutinized to minimize weight.</li><li>The "W" hole size and pattern are optimized for sound projection and condensation relief, while preventing wind intrusion.</li><li>The height is optimized to preserve the users' air stream without interfering with the nose, cheek or other facial features.  </li><li>The mouth opening is designed to accommodate a broad range of face sizes and shapes while shielding the lip plate.  </li><li>Even the spring tension force was meticulously tested to provide 
critical clamp force and still be easily operated by the 95th percentile
 flutist.  </li></ul>
