Slidepad was started by Riley and Ouellet while students at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo.〔 Ouellet received inspiration for the product after he crashed his bicycle when applying too much pressure on his front brakes, resulting in front wheel lockup.〔 In 2009, Riley and Ouellet entered their initial design in Cal Poly’s Business Plan competition and won 1st place.〔(New Company Launches Brake System ). ''Bicycle Retailer and Industry News''. February 25, 2011.〕 In 2013 Alan Nordin, former president of Fallbrook Technologies' bicycle division, joined the company as an executive advisor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-news/2013/02/25/nordin-joins-slidepad-technologies-advisor?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=facebook#.UTFYb-vF1kI )〕
