A ski bike for gliding across a slick surface that dampens shock forces on skis and provides precise maneuverability on a slick surface is provided. The ski bike is configured to turn through either: a rotatable handle bar sub assembly, by shifting the weight of the rider, or through a carving technique involving digging the skis into snow and following the formed carved path to turn. The ski bike dampens shock forces on the skis through a dampener that absorbs shock forces from a front ski, a front shock pivot mount that that enables lateral pivoting to absorb lateral shock forces, and a swing arm tower that enables lateral pivoting of a pair of rear skis. A stomp plate provides stability by gripping footwear of a rider and enabling passage of moisture. A frame includes a lift bar that enables the ski bike to be lifted by ski lift.

A snow raft comprises a plurality of adjustable speed control studs to control the speed of the raft wherein adjustments are made by way of threading and unthreading the studs located within threaded sockets.

A trailer towing device includes a spring device and a locking device. The locking device is configured to move between a locking state in which the spring device is blocked and a release state.

The present application discloses devices for collecting and hauling materials, and methods of using the devices. The devices generally include a post and a sheet. The post includes a number of attachment points and the sheet includes a number of connectors. The connectors are selectively attachable to the attachment points on the post to position the sheet between an open orientation for loading the materials onto the sheet, and a closed orientation for transporting the device with the materials.

A simple device for transporting materials is formed of a sheet of a flexible plastics material of generally tear drop shape to define a front tapered converging portion connected directly to a rear semicircular cupping portion. A rope passes through a pair of transversely spaced holes at the front edge to define a forwardly extending handle portion. The rope extends rearwardly along each side of the front portion to a hole at or adjacent a rear edge of the side edge and is covered by a stiffening tube. The rope passes through holes at the rear cupping portion to define a rear portion of the rope outside the sheet across the rear covered by a stiffening tube engaged over the rear portion of the rope.

A sail system for a velocipede uses a swinging gate that pivots between a closed position, flush against the velocipede and an open position for sailing. A spring cord pulls the gate toward the open position while a control cord pulls the gate toward the closed position. A slide slidably disposed on a top tube controls positioning of the control cord and locks this cord in a particular position. A shield is also attached to the velocipede.

A portable sled for transporting cargo in outdoor environments comprises overlapping High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) sheets arranged in a fish-scale configuration. The design features a structural aluminum body with eye bolts at the front and nylon straps for securing cargo. The sled's fish-scale assembly reduces drag, optimizes weight distribution, and minimizes snagging. Heat-treated HDPE sheets 101 maintain a curved shape when assembled but flatten for storage. The sled incorporates high-visibility colors for safety and is buoyant for water-based operations. Its modular design allows for easy assembly and disassembly in the field, making it highly portable and versatile for various outdoor scenarios.

A transport sled that is configured to receive and retain items such as but not limited to hunting gear, camping equipment and wild game within an interior cavity thereof. The transport sled includes a body having a bottom portion and a top portion wherein the top portion is hingedly secured to the bottom portion. The bottom portion is concave in form having an outer surface configured to slidably traverse across a snow covered surface. The top portion is hexagonal dome shaped forming an interior cavity. The top portion includes storage compartments operable to receive and retain items proximate thereto. The body includes stationary members movably coupled to the rear end of the body. The stationary members move between a first position and a second position wherein in the second position the teeth members of the stationary members engage the snow covered surface to inhibit movement of the transport sled.
