Figure 3. SCAMPER application while analyzing on cargo (analyzing cargo)pants.
SCAMPER is based on the idea that everything new is a modification of something that already
exists. SCAMPER is an acronym that stands for
Substitute (Replacing), Combine, Adapt (Adapting), Magnify, Put to Other Use, Eliminate, and
Rearrange/Reverse (Michalko 2006).
3 DISCUSSION OF ANALYSIS
3.1 Functional aspects (safety and secure)
This design process uses the SCAMPER analysis technique. It combines the function of the safety
cushion (decker) with the pants or trousers. Based on the functional aspect, the design requirements
are pants that are comfortable to use and also serve or provide safety when skateboarding. This
product is designed by adjusting (Adapt) existing components on pants and knee pads as the
Combine method. The product must be able to contain safety functions in the knees of pants or in
areas that assist with the extreme activities. Substitute the pocket functions on the pants, thus the
users could put the safety pad inside.
To become a multipurpose product by placing different functions (Put to Another Use), the design
requirement needed is the application of the bearing function in certain areas that experience direct
impact with the surface when the player falls. Table 1 describes the needs of the activities carried
out on the product:

Users’ positions when falling
Safety pad
Product application is suitable and
the materials are easy to find
Cargo pants have a slightly complex component that can be dealt with by a little extra design that
doesn’t really change the overall appearance. By inserting these bearing components, it becomes
as if a new bag is in the cargo pants. To place the position of these bearings, analysis is needed
on what areas need the most function. Table 2 details the various injury positions in the foot area
when skateboarding.
