ABSTRACT:
The foot support apparatus of the present invention includes a resilient hinge including an upper portion hingedly connected to a lower portion. The lower portion is securely attachable to an upper surface of a sportsboard. A strap has a first end connectable to the upper portion and a second end being so connected so as to urge the upper portion toward the upper surface of the sportsboard. Thus, when the user's foot is placed under the upper portion, the user's foot is wedged within the hinge for support. This wedging action and commensurate ability to conveniently and easily move the foot are advantages which have not heretofore been realizable by available foot support systems.
