Company Story
Landon Innovations’ niche is the creation of unique hand tools and related products for Construction Workers, Carpenters, Woodworkers, Sheet Metal Workers and Do-it-Yourselfers that simplify their tasks and preserve the safety of their backs and limbs in the performance of their work.
Landon Worthington, who performs the demonstrations in the Gorilla Gripper & LegUp videos, designed and prototyped the Gorilla Gripper® Panel Carrier, in 2002. Landon has been in the construction and wood-working trades since age 14, originally building 3-rail fences for horse property owners in Calabasas, California…and then immersing himself in all phases of home construction, cabinet-making and advanced finish carpentry. Landon’s incentive was to create for himself a panel carrier that would effectively grip and carry large, heavy, cumbersome sheets of plywood, Melamine and other such panels in a way that would simplify those tasks and relieve the strain on his back and other body parts. He was only in his early 30’s but already experiencing tendonitis in his forearms and fingers.

With his prototype Gorilla Gripper in hand and proof-of-function accomplished Landon approached his step-father, Jim Cole, a long-time independent businessman, to seek his assistance in getting the Gorilla Gripper financially supported, patented, produced and marketed. A partnership was formed and Landon continued to perfect the product. In 2005 Jim and Landon formed Landon Innovations LLC, began production and proceeded to offer this unique, back-saving product to the hard-at-work public.
