An end assembly for a dance exercise pole. The end assembly comprises: an end part; and a connector configured for connection to a dance pole. A first engagement element is connected to the connector; and there is a second engagement element engageable with the first engagement element. A movable element is movable between a first position and a second position to move at least one of the first engagement element or the second engagement element and thereby switch the end part respectively between: a first configuration with the first engagement element disengaged from the second engagement element, with the connector capable of rotation relative to the end part; and a second configuration with the first engagement element engaged with the second engagement element to restrict the rotation relative to the end part.

A dedicated workout space comprising a floor area, a plurality of fitness equipment located near a perimeter of the floor area, a clear floor space located within the floor area, the plurality of fitness equipment comprising at least one piece each of cardio equipment, strength training equipment, and weightlifting equipment, allowing a user to work out without sharing the fitness equipment with other users. Systems of dedicated workout spaces comprise a first workout space having a plurality of fitness equipment in a first layout, and two or more other dedicated workout spaces adjacent to the first dedicated workout space or at least one of the other dedicated workout spaces, the second plurality of fitness equipment in a second layout, where the first and second layouts may be the same, mirror images of each other about an x axis, mirror images about a y axis, or a combination thereof.

A velocity sport boot system/velocity sport board for performing all-weather snowboarding activity. The velocity sport boot/board system includes a velocity sport boot assembly that provides a method of practicing snowboarding on a treadmill. The velocity sport boot assembly includes a boot liner, a boot body, and a plurality of ball bearing assemblies. The plurality of ball bearing assemblies further includes shock absorbing springs for user comfort on varying surfaces. An alternative embodiment of the velocity sport boot/board system uses a common snowboarding type boot affixed to a sport board assembly that includes a sport board base, coupling straps, and a plurality of ball bearing assemblies.

A playground equipment comprising an array structure of networked ropes arranged in a rectangular array of parallelly arranged first ropes and intersecting second ropes and one or more rolls connected to a first rope, between two neighbouring second ropes wherein each roll comprises an inner clamping part configured for non-slideable fixation to the respective first rope, and an outer part attachable to the inner clamping part
wherein the inner clamping part and the outer part are in non-slideable connection relative to each other and wherein the outer part is rotatable relative to the inner clamping part.

A play structure having one or more monolith structures for the connection of other surfaces (e.g., deckings, water-based elements, interactive elements, etc.). Each of the monolith structures may be adjustably connected with a ground surface such that a variety of possible angles may be obtained by the monolith whit respect to the ground surface. After the desired orientation of the monolith is obtained to the ground surface via the adjustable connection, the monolith may be secured in such position. Water or fluid may be provided to the monolith structures via piping that interfaces with the monolith structures by a fluid connection that is in communication with piping disposed within the monolith structures. A fluid damping or delivery system (e.g., based upon a tipping element that provides water to a fluid flowing surface and/or other water diversion element) may be provided as part of be play structure.

A modular resistance force system includes an axle configured to be rotatable around a rotational axis and one or more resistance mechanisms. Each of the one or more resistance mechanisms includes a resistance element disposed about a portion of the axle, a resistance element housing configured to house the resistance element and a resistance substance disposed between the resistance element and the resistance element housing. Either the resistance element or the resistance element housing is selectively engaged to rotate with the axle. A resistance between the resistance element and the resistance substance causes a force to be applied to the axle when the resistance element and the resistance element housing move relative to each other.

A system for controlling use of an exercise course by a person in a climbing park has a guiding element, which extends along a longitudinal direction and along which a person can move between a connecting section of the guiding element and a disconnecting section of the guiding element. A securing device is movably attachable along the guiding element between the connecting section and the disconnecting section. The securing device is connectable to the guiding element in the connecting section and is disconnectable from the guiding element in the disconnecting section. An identification device is configured such that, by the identification device, at least a connecting of the securing device within the identification section is identifiable, such that an occupancy of the guiding element with another person is identifiable therewith. An actuating device of the securing device is controllable with the identification device, such that the actuating device of the securing device is adjustable in a clearance position and, upon identification of the occupancy of the guiding element by another person, in a blocking mode. The actuating device of the securing device is coupled with the securing device, such that, in the blocking mode, a connecting of the securing device in the connecting section and/or a displacing of the securing device along the guiding element is blocked.
