An instructional device for an instructor to use with a student for downhill skiing is disclosed. In use, the instructor skis to the side and behind the student skier. A curved extension member is provided at the end of a shaft and is placed against the student skier's midsection to provide stability and balance for the student. Two student handles can be attached to the extension member. The student handles serve two purposes. The device can be easily converted for use either from the student's right side or left side, depending on the instructor's preference. Second, the student handles can be added as the student progresses to help correctly position the student's hands and develop good posture for the eventual use of ski poles. An instructor handle is located along the shaft. The instructor handle may be adjustable along the length of the shaft.

Device for training or for playing shootouts (1), designed to be fixed between two posts, including a flexible band (2) that is elastic and has two opposite free ends (20, 21), first removable fixation means (3) that are secured to a first end (20) of the band, and second removable fixation means (4) that are secured to the second end (21) of the band, wherein said first and second removable fixation means are able to guarantee an removable fixation of the device directly to the two respective posts, the first removable fixation means (3) being able to create a strapping around the posts with the band (2) in the shape of a knot (50).

An example ball glove ball catch system includes a ball glove and a ball catch. The ball glove may comprise webbing and a hand opening. The ball catch may be located between the hand opening and the webbing.

A cornhole training apparatus for simulating practice scenarios involving a blocking bag positional near a hole on a cornhole game board. The cornhole training apparatus comprises a blocking bag mounting structure configured to engage the cornhole gameboard surface. The blocking bag mounting structure comprises a horizontal band and a pair of cornhole board engaging members. The pair of cornhole board engaging members are oppositely disposed at either end of the horizontal band and configured to extend around and engage the sides of the cornhole gameboard to hold the blocking bag mounting structure in place. A blocking bag is attachable to the horizontal band to simulate a cornhole bag obstructing the hole.

This invention is embodied by a controlled, variable tension line, payout reel machine. A system of sensors detect line tension and line distance paid out, location, and transmit through wired and unwired communication to a microprocessor. The microprocessor is co-located with the reel structure, which in turn applies, via a brake feature, resistance to the reel which is paying out the line being pulled by the user. This invention pertains to all applications where it is desirable to control the tension in a line paid out from a reel or reel. As stated, the payout motive force is supplied by the person, animal or apparatus attached to the end of the line, opposite the reel. The invention applies to the field of precise and measured control of line tension for sport, sport training, performance testing.

The invention refers to the equipment of the training rink for floorball, manufacturing of exerciser structural element, applying concept of tennis racket stringing. Proposed design of subsidiary element for floorball rink arrangement characterised with that it is made as latticework formed by: two parallel end plates; several threaded rods as stiffening members; two elastic string structures disposed in two parallel planes, at that each of it presents one side of mentioned latticework and provided with: —holes for fastening threaded rods which assure rigidity and load bearing capacity of the subsidiary element frame structure; —holes for criss-cross stringing in two parallel planes and string fastening at mentioned end plates independently one from another.

An integrated multi-purpose hockey skatemill with a movable skatemill belt (2) comprising a stationary area of the artificial ice (1) with a front face of the work area wherein a movable skatemill belt (2) is built in by means of barrier-free transition areas with a system of spaced signalization/display elements (5) hung on the tiltable/sliding brackets (5a) at the frontal and lateral sectors with respect to the center of the movable skatemill belt (2). There is a safety restraint system (3) and a stabilization system (4) anchored above the movable skatemill belt (2). A tensile/compressive force measuring system (8) is suspended from above in the longitudinal axis of the movable skatemill belt (2). The said skatemill comprises an electronic control unit (9) ECU controlling the operation of the movable skatemill belt's (2) drive system, the system of signalization/display elements (5), the system of optical scanning cameras (6) and the tensile/compressive force measuring system (8). There are two puck feeders (7) located on the border line defining the front side of the work area. There is a hockey goal structure with target zones impact detection sensors located on the edge of the work force in front of the movable skatemill belt (2). Two laser markers (12) used to define the width of a skate track may be located on the stationary area of the artificial ice in front of the movable skatemill belt.

The present invention relates to a cover assembly including a frame including at least one inflatable portion. At least one cover is supported by the frame to define a chamber. Adjustment means is provided for adjusting the air conditions (e.g. pressure or oxygen content) of the pressure chamber.
