Clever snow shovel named Best Idea of the Netherlands

The OBOS (Open Paving Victorious Snow Shovel) won the program Het Beste Idee van Nederland (The Best Idea of the Netherlands) on Saturday night. The OBOS should make shoveling snow easier. A system in the scoop ensures that the shovel doesn't hook on tiles or other objects. The investors, Dick and Frank, are teachers of Engineering and Physics at the same school. It is their passion to encourage students to achieve their ambitions. With the release of the OBOS, they have achieved their own ambition.
