摘要: An injection-molded ski includes a ski body and two ski edges attached to opposite edge surfaces of the ski body. The ski body is formed from a uniform material and has top, bottom, and edge surfaces and a binding mounting platform. The binding mounting platform is formed on the top surface and receives a boot binding. The ski edges comprise an edge portion and securing features. In one embodiment, a ski is injection-molded using a molding material, such as glass-reinforced nylon or a combination of one or more suitable materials. A novel mold facilitates injection of molding material around and/or between the securing features thereby locking the edges in place when the molding material cools. Compared to conventional skis, the novel injection-molded ski has improved durability, flexibility, strength, and performance characteristics, reduced manufacturing complexity that avoids typical layup processes, and reduced susceptibility to failure due to moisture or wear.

摘要: A steering system for a snowboard includes two binding interface pods, one of which may be active and one of which may be passive. Rotation or tilting of a top plate of the active binding interface pod in response to rotation or tilting of the rider’s steering foot causes counter-rotation of a steering fin under the rider’s steering foot. The passive binding interface pod is responsive via a linkage between the active and passive binding interface pods to cause rotation of a steering fin under the rider’s non-steering foot. Coordinated counter-rotation of the steering fins causes the board to turn in the direction of rotation of the rider’s steering foot when the steering fins are unaligned. Optionally, both binding pods may be active in steering, i.e. enabling two footed steering.

摘要: A system and method for providing a ski-snowboard device capable of skinning in an uphill ski mode and skiing in a downhill snowboard mode. The system may include two skis with inner and outer edges having substantially convex side cuts, and an insert that fits into the space between the inner edge side cuts of each of the two skis. The convex side cuts of the inner edges of the skis may have a groove formed in each, and a mating tongue on each side of the insert can fit into the grooves in a downhill snowboard mode. The tongue-and-groove connection may improve the torsional stiffness of the board, and the convex side cuts may allow a user to better grip when skiing and eliminate the step of switching the skis when used as sides of the snowboard.

摘要: An active suspension orthotic support system is disclosed. The suspension orthotic support system comprises at least one variable resistance beam extending from a heel section to a mid-arch section of the footwear, wherein rotation of the variable resistance beam from a first position to a second position causes a resistance provided by the variable resistance beam to vary between a minimum resistance to a maximum resistance.

摘要: Systems and methods are provided for generating a design for a gliding board. The methods involve operating a processor to: define a desired carved turn of the gliding board; define a desired global curvature profile; generate a desired deformed shape of the gliding board during the desired carved turn; generate a sidecut profile of the gliding board; generate a width profile of the gliding board; generate a camber profile of the gliding board; generate at least one stiffness design variable profile; generate a total load profile; modify at least the width profile, the sidecut profile and at least one of the at least one stiffness design variable profile at least once; and define the design for the gliding board based at least on the width profile, the camber profile, and the at least one stiffness design variable profile.

摘要: A thrust-responsive structure for skis includes a plurality of retractable elements. Each retractable element includes a portion configured to move from an elevated position to a retracted position. Each retractable element further includes a first retention feature. The structure further comprises a matrix surrounding at least a subset of the plurality of retractable elements. The matrix is static relative to the plurality of retractable elements. The matrix includes a plurality of second retention features configured to captively engage the first retention features of the plurality of retractable elements. A position of each retractable element of the plurality of retractable elements, in the elevated position, is limited by contact between the first retention feature and the second retention feature.

摘要: A snow ski assembly is provided for use by an individual to slide across a snow covered surface, for example, under the force of gravity. The assembly includes a ski having a bottom wall for engaging the snow covered surface and an upturned peripheral region extending around a perimeter of the bottom wall. The bottom wall of the ski includes at least one control structure extending across at least a portion of the bottom wall, where the at least one control structure is configured to control a movement of the ski on the snow covered surface. The assembly also includes a mounting feature configured to couple a binding to the bottom wall of the ski, such that the individual can position a foot in the binding and use the ski to slide across the snow covered surface.

摘要: A ski for use on ice or snow is disclosed. The ski includes a ski body having a tip portion, a tail portion, and a longitudinal running length extending between the tip portion and the tail portion and a substantially flat bottom surface for sliding on snow or ice. The ski also includes a suspension system comprised of a substantially rigid support structure secured to the longitudinally central region of the said ski body at two attachment locations separated by a distance of at least 5 inches along the longitudinal axis of the ski body, and at least one resilient element configured to exert an opposing force between the support structure and the ski body in the area between the two attachment locations.
