Patent number: 7396036Abstract: A gliding board, such as a snowboard, has improved lift or float in certain conditions, e.g., when gliding in powdered snow. A nose and/or tail of the gliding board may have a variable bending property to provide the improved float. In one embodiment, the nose and/or tail may have a tapered thickness or other features so that the nose and/or tail is more flexible toward the tip of the nose or tail. Other variable bending properties in the nose and/or tail may be provided for reasons other than improved float, such as to enhance trick or other maneuver performance.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2004Date of Patent: July 8, 2008Assignee: The Burton CorporationInventors: Scott Barbieri, Peter J. Bergendahl

Patent number: 6866273Abstract: A sliding device provides a binding-free apparatus suitable for trick and other riding on snow, sand, ice and other surfaces. An elongated deck to support the rider is elevated from and attached to an elongated runner, which provides a surface that slides on the snow, sand, etc. The runner may be made more narrow than the deck to provide leverage for the rider to tilt the device onto an edge of the runner to steer the device. The device may not have any defined front or back portion and thus be adapted for riding in either direction.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2000Date of Patent: March 15, 2005Assignee: The Burton CorporationInventors: G. Scott Barbieri, Matt Cappozzi

Patent number: 6808183Abstract: A method and system for mounting a binding to a gliding board. In one embodiment, a single row of attachment features, e.g., threaded inserts, may be used to mount a foot binding to the gliding board. The attachment features may be equally spaced along the row, e.g., at 25 mm increments. In one embodiment, a binding includes a hold down plate that may be attached to the gliding board using only two fasteners, e.g., each fastener engaging with an attachment feature on the board, or using only fasteners that lie along a longitudinal line on the gliding board.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2003Date of Patent: October 26, 2004Assignee: The Burton CorporationInventors: Hubert M. Schaller, G. Scott Barbieri, Christian Breuer

Patent number: 6773021Abstract: A spacer for a sliding device connects a deck to a runner. The spacer may allow relative rotation, pivoting and/or sliding of the deck and the runner. The sliding, pivoting and/or rotating may reduce the stresses experienced at the attachment points of the spacer and the deck or the spacer and the runner. The spacer arrangement may also provide a sliding device with a smoother ride.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2001Date of Patent: August 10, 2004Assignee: The Burton CorporationInventors: Christian P. Breuer, G. Scott Barbieri

Patent number: 6702315Abstract: A braking feature is provided that can resist gliding board runaway, i.e., uncontrolled gliding without a rider, or other movement of a gliding board, e.g., a gliding device having no foot bindings. The braking feature may always be active to resist gliding board movement, and/or resist movement only when a rider is not supported on the gliding device. Activation of a braking feature may be delayed. The braking feature may be controlled based on a force urging a bottom surface of the gliding device into contact with the gliding surface, e.g., the braking feature may be deactivated if the weight of a rider is supported on the gliding device. A force that deactivates a braking feature may be made adjustable, e.g., to accommodate riders of different weights or to provide different braking feature responses.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2001Date of Patent: March 9, 2004Assignee: The Burton CorporationInventors: G. Scott Barbieri, Hubert S. Schaller, Edward Giard, Benjamin Beck, Douglas Marsden, David G. Harting, Baron C. Brandt, John Earle
