Some embodiments disclosed herein provide an apparatus for joining two skis to form a splitboard. The apparatus can comprise a first attachment portion configured to attach to a first ski and a second attachment portion configured to attach to a second ski. The first attachment portion and the second attachment portion can be configured to engage to prevent splitboard skis from moving up and down relative to each other, from moving apart in a direction perpendicular to a seam of the splitboard, from sliding relative to each other in a direction parallel to the seam, and from rotating about the seam of the splitboard.

There is provided a snowboard attachment to a standard snowboard for riding under powder snow conditions. The snowboard attachment comprises a nose part, an elongate passage and a body part. The nose part is operable to attach to the standard snowboard for providing lift and float while riding on powder snow. The elongate passage has walls extending between an opening in a top surface of the snowboard attachment and an opening in a bottom surface of the snowboard attachment, and is orientated transverse to the longitudinal axis of the snowboard attachment. The walls of the elongate passage are configured to surround the standard snowboard. The body part is attached in operation to the nose part, and has clamp through openings. The clamp through openings are arranged to receive bolts of a binding clamp of the standard snowboard, such that the clamp through openings lie in operation between the binding clamp and the standard snowboard.

A method of changing a shape of a gliding surface of a gliding device may involve, in response to longitudinal deflection of the gliding device, causing at least one force transfer element to move longitudinally relative to the gliding device. Causing the at least one force transfer element to move longitudinally relative to the gliding device may involve causing the at least one force transfer element to deflect first and second laterally opposite side elements of the gliding device along a portion of the gliding device extending longitudinally along a binding region of the gliding device. Apparatuses and gliding devices are also disclosed.

A rotating binding for a snowboard or other recreational equipment to which a user's foot is attached includes a lever having teeth at one end for engaging corresponding teeth in a disk attached to the snowboard or other equipment. Movement of the lever is resisted until an additional movement of the lever is performed in order to unsecure the lever from a secured position in which it engages the teeth within the disk. Some examples of the snowboard or other recreational equipment may include retractable fins that may be extended downward from the snowboard, or secured in a retracted position.
