ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND-FIELD OF INVENTION
This invention belongs to the family of sporting goods to slide on snow particularly to a snowboard with braking, maneuvering and binding features.
BACKGROUND-DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
The search for means for sliding on snow has disclosed the existence of elongated forms as skis and snowboards. Cross-country skis usually have a width of 5 cm for a length of 200 cm, that is a 40:1 ratio. But a cross-country ski does not necessitate a lot of veering and does not require special guides to do so. Downhill skis generally have a ratio of 25:1. These skis veer by leaping and use their sides to control the direction. As for snowboards, they have a ratio of 25 cm on 150 cm that is a 6:1 ratio. The width of a snowboard makes it easier for users to steer by shifting their weight to the sides, without leaps. There also are one meter convex disks for kids that do not comprise fasteners nor means to change directions.
OBJECTS AND ADVANTAGES
The first objective of this invention is to provide an article that has a certain length so it can be steered and has the ability to brake while having the stability of a dome.
Another objective is to provide sporting gear with a length to width ratio of 2:1. Its rear part has humps to facilitate the steering. The dome has fasteners for the feet to allow the user to stay up and secure when sliding downhill while allowing acrobatics.
