Abstract: A temporary hold-up device for a snowboard support while riding a chairlift including a substantially stiff cord of limited give, at a first end of which a releasable clasp is provided to encircle the restraint bar of the chairlift, while at a second opposite end of which a hook is provided to couple to a rear binding of one of the front and back foot mountings of the snowboard, and by which the restraint bar serves to hold and restrain the snowboard against flapping about while the riding is pulled up the lift.
