  • Skateboard tension strap
    Patent number: 7118117
    Abstract: A skateboard tension strap is provided for temporarily connecting a skateboard to the body of the user in order to allow the user to perform “hands-free” stunts without having to use his or her hands to hold or control the skateboard. A waist belt is worn by the user. A tension strap resiliently and adjustably connects the waist belt to the skateboard. The tension strap includes an elastic section and has a first end anchored to the skateboard and a second, upper end for adjustably connecting the tension strap to the waist belt. A connector extends between the waist belt and the upper end of the tension strap to provide the adjustable connection. The tension strap and the waist belt are sufficiently wide and flat to allow the application of logos or other designs thereto.
