Benefits of technology

This patent describes a tension structure for a snowboard that can be easily attached and removed without modifying the snowboard or snowboard boot bindings. The tension structure acts as a handle for carrying the snowboard and can be reversed or detached without adding or removing components from the original snowboard. The tension structure reduces imbalance and twisting torque, making it easier and safer for the snowboarder to carry the snowboard. It also acts as a backstop to prevent the free foot from slipping off the snowboard. Additionally, the patent describes a storage compartment for a fold-able shoulder strap that does not need to be removed prior to using the snowboard.

Problems solved by technology

The tension structure is mounted between the boot bindings but can be detached if it inadvertently becomes damaged.

Abstract

A snowboard carrying device that acts as handle by which a snowboard user can carry a snowboard. The snowboard carrying device extends between the boot bindings of a snowboard and does not require modification of the snowboard or boot bindings. The carrying device uses tension to maintain a tight configuration and therefore can remain on the snowboard while the user is snowboarding, avoiding the requirements associated with removal and storage of typical carrying devices.

Description

FIELD OF INVENTION[0001]This invention relates in one form to a carrying device for a snowboard. Specifically described are methods and devices to be used with a snowboard that permits the snowboarder to easily carry the snowboard.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Snowboards can be difficult to carry and transport because of their size, shape, and weight. This can be particularly true for snowboarders who have physical limitations with respect to the snowboard. For example, a small child or young adult might have difficulty in wrapping their arm around the odd shape of the board or have the ability to balance it during transport; especially over rough and slippery ice, snow, and ground conditions encountered at ski lifts. Snowboards typically do not have any handle and this can make it difficult to carry over long distances.[0003]Devices for carrying snowboards are known in the art. However, there are generally three problems with most of them. First, they might require the attachmen...
