Abstract: A sport landing cushion may comprise an airbag comprising first and second inflatable compartments or first and second airbags, wherein the first compartment (airbag) is thicker than the second compartment (airbag) and provides a base, and wherein the second compartment (airbag) provides a landing surface and is for inflation to a higher pressure for use than is the first compartment (airbag). A container therefor may comprise an enclosure for a rolled deflated airbag and having an opening through which a deflated airbag may pass, a winch, and an air supply for inflating the airbag.

Abstract: An apparatus having a composite landing surface for sports equipment, such as bicycles, motorcycles, skateboards, in-line skates, skis and snowboards, is provided. The invention includes a base member or structure, a shock absorbing layer, and a rigid material on top of the shock absorbing layer. The shock absorbing layer absorbs impact forces generated when sports equipment lands on the landing surface. The rigid layer provides a stiff top surface that distributes loads and limits surface deflection during a landing. When an athlete performs an aerial maneuver using sports equipment and lands on the composite surface, the athlete experiences a cushioned landing but is able to roll or slide on the landing surface after the landing.

Abstract: A frame for hanging exercise equipment includes a base having front and rear sides and opposite ends for resting on a floor. The base is further equipable with inclineable end extensions. Crossing first and second overhead supports have generally horizontal bars connecting vertical legs which are attached to the base sides in the case of the first support and the ends in the case of the second support. Fixed and slideable types of anchors are disposed on the supports for pivotally hanging exercise equipment. Horizontal guide bars are demountably attached between a pair of cross members which are height adjustably mounted on the legs of the first overhead support. The distance from the legs of the first overhead support to each horizontal guide bar is also adjustable. The guide bar ends are mounted to a tubular slide which slides over the end of the cross member. The slide can be selectively secured by a removable pin to any one of a plurality of spaced apart mounting holes in the cross member.

Abstract: A gymnastic training device has a conventional training belt adapted to support a gymnast at the waist. A pair of elongated resilient supporting assemblies are attached to opposite sides of the training belt and are comprised of bungy cords which can be selectively added or removed with respect to the assemblies to adjust the resilient capabilities thereof. A pulley support means including a pair of laterally positioned pulleys and at least one elevated pulley are supported over the normal position of the training belt by either a self-standing frame or by a frame assembly attached to the ceiling of a building. A first cable has a center portion and opposite ends with the opposite ends being secured to each of the free ends of the elongated resilient supporting assemblies.
