  • Patent number: 6263709
    Abstract: A snowboard locking system including two longitudinal members that are transversely aligned and partially overlapping from opposite sides of the middle section of a snowboard. Each elongated member includes a U-shaped portion designed to capture the outer edge of the snowboard when the elongated member is transversely aligned thereover. Formed on the end of each elongated member opposite the U-shaped portion is a wide body portion with a plurality of holes formed thereon. During installation on a snowboard, the elongated members are transversely aligned on opposite sides of the snowboard so that the U-shaped portions capture the opposite outer edges of the snowboard and the body portions overlap. A plurality of holes formed on the body portion of each elongated member may be aligned and registered. A lock extending through the aligned holes of the two elongated members is then used to hold them in a transversely aligned position on the snowboard.
