20120256381 | EXOSKELETON AND FOOTWEAR ATTACHMENT SYSTEM - An exoskeleton (E) for connecting footwear to sporting equipment. The exoskeleton has an underfoot base ( | 10-11-2012 |
20130175771 | Skate With Interchangeable Use Elements - A skate having a detachable assembly comprising a use element selected from an ice skate blade, a roller skate assembly and an in-line roller skate assembly. The skate includes a shoe having a protrusion extending from the sole and into locking engagement with a corresponding socket in the detachable assembly. The protrusion including a cavity with a lateral recess which receives a corresponding engaging member of a coupling member disposed partially in the socket. The coupling member includes an actuating member selectively movable between a locking position where the engaging member is biased radially outwardly into engagement with the lateral recess, and a release position where the engaging member biased radially inwardly out of engagement with the lateral recess. | 07-11-2013 |
20130214499 | SKATE - A skate having a skate boot with a non-lasted boot shell, the shell having a first non-lasted three-dimensional sub-shell and a second non-lasted three-dimensional sub-shell, the second sub-shell being interior to and adjoining the first sub-shell, the first sub-shell comprising a first material having a first density and the second sub-shell comprising a second material having a second density, the second density being less than the first density, the shell being shaped so as to have a heel portion, an ankle portion, a lateral portion, a medial portion, and a sole portion; and a ground-engaging assembly disposed on an underside of the skate. Additional sub-shells are possible. Methods of manufacturing the skate boot shell, including molding and build-up, are also disclosed. | 08-22-2013 |
20140265174 | RIB-STIFFENED SPORTS BOARD - A sports board has a board body having a top surface and an opposed bottom surface, a binding attachment structure formed on or in the board body, and a plurality of ribs collectively having longitudinal portions and transverse portions each having a thickness and a height that are predetermined to provide the sports board with a preselected longitudinal, transverse, and torsional stiffness desirable for sliding on the snow. | 09-18-2014 |
20140327216 | SKATE - A skate having a skate boot with a non-lasted boot shell, the shell having a first non-lasted three-dimensional sub-shell and a second non-lasted three-dimensional sub-shell, the second sub-shell being interior to and adjoining the first sub-shell, the first sub-shell comprising a first material having a first density and the second sub-shell comprising a second material having a second density, the second density being less than the first density, the shell being shaped so as to have a heel portion, an ankle portion, a lateral portion, a medial portion, and a sole portion; and a ground-engaging assembly disposed on an underside of the skate.
