LED lights for surfboard
The LED lights for a surfboard is a safety device. The LED lights for a surfboard is configured for use with a surfboard. The surfboard is a floating structure. The surfboard is a roughly disk shaped structure. The surfboard comprises a superior face and an inferior face. The LED lights for a surfboard illuminates when the LED lights for a surfboard is placed in water. The illumination of the LED lights for a surfboard discourages predators in the water from attacking the LED lights for a surfboard. The LED lights for a surfboard comprises a housing, an illumination circuit and the surfboard. The housing contains the illumination circuit. The housing mounts on the inferior face of the disk structure of the surfboard. The illumination circuit automatically illuminates when the LED lights for a surfboard is placed in water.
Fin shaped underwater camera housing and system incorporating same
The present invention provides a board mountable system for filming underwater video. The inventive board mountable system can be mounted to the underside of water vehicles for incorporating a camera for filming from an underwater perspective. The inventive board mountable system is shaped to minimize drag as a result of the mounted camera or camera system. Embodiments of the inventive system includes a fin shaped housing for holding a camera or camera system. In certain embodiments, the fin is removably attached to the water vehicle, such as a surf board, where the fin housing can be swapped with other fins being used with the water vehicle for controlling the direction of a watersports board in motion. These embodiments of the inventive system further include a connection means for connecting the fin to the underside of a water vessel.

Paddleboard kit
The invention involves a paddleboard kit for converting any water sports board such as a surfboard into a paddleboard. An oar support assembly, typically secures oars with pivotal paddles to the board; facilitating rowing exercises that may be practiced while kneeling or standing. During use, the pivotable paddles pivot in such a way that the blade portion holds a steady position in relation to a shaft portion on the power stroke, whilst being free to fold in the opposite sense on the idle stroke when each stroke is executed as a substantially axial thrust of the shaft. The oar support assembly secures the pair of oars and is itself secured to the board by way of board couplers adjustably coupled to a portion of a strap that tightens to snuggly wrap around the board.
Mast and corresponding rig, in particular for a surfboard
A mast for a rig for a surfboard is characterized among others by the following features: a mast with a profiled cross-section in the longitudinal direction, said cross-section being formed transversely to the mast longitudinal direction and deviating from a circular shape; the profiled cross-section has the shape of a droplet or has a droplet-like design in the manner of a droplet profile; the mast has a fork tree head securing section which can be rotated or pivoted about the fork tree head securing section; the fork tree head securing section is provided with a cross-section which deviates from the droplet profile; and the mast lower part and the mast upper part of the mast consist of plastic or comprise plastic optionally with the addition of a reinforcement consisting of metal, glass fibers, and/or carbon fibers.
Multi-position user support device for a stand-up paddle board
A device for providing user-support on a stand-up paddle board (SUP) includes a support post having a user-support pad mounted to its upper end portion and a horizontal rotation axle around which the support post is rotatable to a position for use, and to a stored position. The device is configured to be mounted to the SUP with the horizontal rotation axle positioned transversely to a length of the SUP. The device includes a spring component returnably connected to the support post via the horizontal rotation axle, configured to impose a return force on the support post in the stored position.
PADDLE BOARD WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE AND SYSTEM
A wireless communication system, including a paddle board to float on water and to allow a user to stand thereupon while the paddle board floats on the water, a paddle to allow the user to paddle through the water while the user is standing on the paddle board, and a mobile device attached to the paddle board such that at least one speaker disposed on the paddle board plays music stored on the mobile device, wherein the paddle communicates with the mobile device to control the music playing on the at least one speaker.
INTERCHANGEABLE BOARD MOUNT SYSTEM
A board mount system is provided for securely mounting an action sports accessory with a sports board by securing a base mount with the sports board, the base mount including an interlocking opening for rotatably attaching interchangeable adapters that are attached to or incorporated with the action sports accessory, such as a camera, gimbal, hook, shelf, handle or secure cover. The base mount may be secured physically or magnetically to the board via screws or magnets positioned at peripheral corners of the base mount within cylindrical housings which interface directly with a surface of the board, while a mount surface of the base mount is connected with a top portion of the cylindrical housings so that the mount surface is raised above the surface of the board to allow the adapters to securely fit into the interlocking opening or in a space between the mount surface and the board.
Surf wax handling assembly
A surf wax handling assembly having a base member that is an elongated, rigid body having a slanted scraper at one end and a top portion that includes a pressing surface disposed between two opposing raised side edges; a hollow receptacle member that is a rigid container having an open top, an open bottom, and a hollow interior, with the receptacle member configured to selectively engage with the top portion of the base member such that the pressing surface of the base member encloses the open bottom of the receptacle member; and a press member configured to slide into the open top of the receptacle member and through the hollow interior of the receptacle member so as to press individual wax pieces present into the hollow portion away from the open top and against the pressing surface to form a larger piece that can be immediately reused.
Paddle wheel apparatus and method of use thereof
The invention comprises a paddle board apparatus and method of use thereof, comprising: a manual crank connected to a drive shaft, a rotatable housing, and a set of paddle wheels connected to an outer surface of the rotatable housing, where a child manually turning the crank simultaneously propels the paddle board forward in water through use of the paddle wheels and drives an air pump in the rotatable housing to blow bubbles about the paddle board for enjoyment of the child riding the paddle board.
