Introduction
We thought it would be cool to design a wrist rest that matched the profile of a board. There are a lot of Vegas out there. We thought some people might be interested.

Specifications
Material: Aluminum, remainder TBD
Colors: E-White and Black are currently leading
Angle: 6.5 degrees
Depth: 80 mm
Feet: 4 adhesive rubber feet (Note: the height matches with the rubber feet on)
Price: $100+ (for aluminum), possibly lower with higher interest

Changes Between Prototypes
The first prototype was too short for our entire hands to sit comfortably so we've extended the depth for the second prototype (to 80 mm). We also adjusted some edges to better match the Vega's aesthetic. The third prototype features the same dimensions with a few adjustments to the curves and chamfers.

FAQ

Why Aluminum
Aesthetics and feel. The finish matches the board more than polycarbonate, resin, or wood. It's also cool to the touch which we found refreshing over the past few weeks of use.

Other materials?
Unless there is a large interest in copper or stainless steel, we will most likely stick to an aluminum variant. Polycarbonate has been reasonably popular and we will consider it if we feel that there is adequate interest.

What about color matching?
The navy prototype didn't match the Vega navy either but we thought it paired nicely regardless of the minor color variation. Here are some pictures of the black prototype next to a black vega:
