Abstract: A method for providing at least one component of a snowboard binding, comprising the steps consisting in: using a material of the SMC (Sheet Molding Compound) type, constituted by discontinuous fibers of carbon or glass or hybrid, arranged randomly and interposed between two layers of polymeric resin; arranging the material in a mold for a step of pressure molding by means of metallic mold parts; performing the pressure molding step at a temperature and a pressure that are higher than the ambient values, with a low or high flow of material to fill the cavity of the mold; extracting the component from the mold.

Abstract: A snowboard binding, comprising a base plate which has a cavity for accommodating a disk adapted to allow the connection between the base plate and the snowboard deck, the disk having an elongated shape with the central regions provided with recesses, the cavity of the base plate having complementary protrusions adapted to mate with the recesses of the disk.

Abstract: A spoiler for a snowboard binding, comprising a shell adapted to be pivoted, at a lower region thereof, to a base plate of a snowboard binding, the shell having a plurality of cuts which extend from lateral edges of the shell to an internal region of the shell, in order to give flexibility to the shell.

Abstract: A binding for fixing a shoe to a snowboard and the like comprising a base body that can be fixed to a snowboard and the like by an angular positioning disk with engagement of contact elements defined by the base body on the snowboard, elements for fastening a shoe being associable with the base body and elastic shock-absorbing elements being also associable and interposable between the snowboard and the like and the base body, the shock-absorbing elements at least partially surrounding the external lateral profiles of the rear region of the base body.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a retainment strap for bindings particularly for snowboards that comprises an actuation lever fixable to a tie-rod coupleable to one side of a binding and engageable with a toothed strip fixable to the other side of the binding, the retainment strap further comprising an external sheath fixable to the base of the actuation lever and having a passage channel for the tie-rod. The tie-rod is provided with a plurality of selectively adjustable fixing zones for the base. Symbols that are viewable from a small window in the sheath are provided on the tie-rod in a manner to indicate outwardly the length adjustment for the retainment strap. The tie-rod is provided with a longitudinal slot for rendering the tie-rod more flexible.

Abstract: A leg support, for snowboard bindings, comprising a base to be fixed to a snowboard and from which a heel unit protrudes to the rear, the support comprising:

Abstract: A snowboard binding comprising a flat base which is provided with elements for fixing to a shoe and is centrally provided with a circular opening which is shaped complementarily to a plate for fixing to the snowboard so that the base can be rotated adjustably about the plate. The base has, around the opening, notches for engaging the plate in preset angular positions, the base further comprising, adjacent to at least one of its lateral edges, two arms which protrude from the base and converge in a region where the arms are mutually opposite and rigidly coupled to elements for adjusting the mutual distance between the arms.
