Beyond human comprehension: Bonving!

The story of Bonving goes way back when the 3 guys in eggstone had very little to do. To kill boredom, they invented a sport called Bonving, named after a Swedish shoe manufacturer.

The result came out as something that could be described as shoe-badminton. Naturally, a racket would be rather insufficient when throwing shoes. That's where the standard sized plastic garbage can enters.

The shoe

The original shoe (pictured left) was presented to the participants of the 1994 Bonving Championships by Mr Elving Bonving - founder of the Bonving factory in Nässjö. Mr Bonving himself came down, together with the Bonving family, to attend the games at Peter Fridh Arena in Lomma.

The shoe pictured is a Bonving President size 7 1/2 and has an inscription on the inside - for men who demand the best!
