ABSTRACT:
Catwalk Sticks are used by snowboarders for pulling themselves along flat terrain. The Catwalk Sticks include a handle, shaft and blade. The blade, which pivots on a bolt, is locked open when in use via a latch. The latch is secured to the shaft via a shaft clamp. The end of the latch that does not make contact with the blade, once pressed by a thumb, pivots the latch to release tension on the blade. This allows the user to swing the blade toward the shaft and secure the blade to the shaft via the blade clamp. Latch pressure on the blade is created by a spring, coiled around a pivot bolt that secures the latch to the shaft clamp.
