  • Patent number: 6645098
    Abstract: A ball for use in playing street hockey having a substantially smooth spherical shell with a hollow interior cavity partially filled with a liquid and a plurality of prills to less than one-half of the volume of the interior cavity. The specific gravity of the prills is less than that of the liquid to minimize splash of the liquid and to improve the ability of the liquid to remain in the lower portion of the ball as it travels over a playing surface.

  • Patent number: 6526592
    Abstract: A protective scooter glove that uses a semi-rigid support plate to protect the user's wrist from hyper-extending backward or side to side, an abrasion resistant palm panel to protect the user's palm and heel from abrasions, and padding to protect the user's heel and palm from impact injuries, all in the event of a fall. A semi-rigid support plate is attached to the back of the scooter glove by means of two sleeves. Two removably connected VELCRO straps tighten the semi-rigid support plate above the user's wrist and first knuckles to ensure optimal fit and comfort to prevent the plate from moving during wear.
