Abstract: A snowboard boot binding rotation system provides for detent notches that may be adjusted in rotational separation by the relative rotation of two co-rotating disks. Adjustment of the location of the lock engaging these notches and adjustment in the separation between the notches allows complete adjustment of the user's stance for snowboarding and skateboarding. A pawl mechanism allows for a hard-lock and soft-lock to be used in the snowboarding stance and skateboarding stance, respectively, for convenience of use by not requiring the boot to be removed from the binding to make the stance angle adjustments.

Abstract: A dual-locking rotational device with an escape mechanism for interface between a snowboard and the boot binding of a snowboarder's forward foot is disclosed. The present invention makes possible automatic positioning and repositioning of a snowboarder's forward foot boot binding from a transverse downhill position to a comfortable walking forward foot position and back again to the transverse downhill position. In particular, the present invention includes a swivel ring or disk positioned between the boot binding frame and the snowboard, and a locking mechanism which engages with the swivel ring or disk, to allow the swivel ring or disk, and thus the boot binding frame and the snowboarder's forward foot, to move between the transverse downhill position and the comfortable walking forward foot position. The present invention further includes a swivel disk retainer ring or disk for attaching the dual-locking rotating device to the top surface of the snowboard.
