A snowboard binding with a base, a bearing shell movable about a first rotary pin supported by the base, and a pedal for controlling the bearing shell from an open position to a closed position, the bearing shell including a shell bottom and two shell sides supporting the pedal. The first rotary pin is supported by the bearing shell to form a boot stop in the shell bottom in any position of the bearing shell lying between an open position and the closed position. The shell bottom can support a bearing and the base, a pin housed in the bearing to form a hinge extending along the axis of rotation of the first rotary pin. The pedal can move relative to the shell sides about a second axis of rotation and be supported by two arms.

The fastening device (3) for fastening a boot (4) to a sliding board (2) includes a base (10) intended to be fastened to a sliding board and to surround, at least partially, a sole and lateral sides of a boot, at least one lever (201, 301) that can move relative to the base and can interact with a retention element (44A, 44B) connected to a boot, the lever (201, 301) being able to move between a first retention position (P1) and a second clamping position (P2), the lever being able to retain the boot in the base when it is in its first position, the lever being able to transmit a downward force on the retention element when it is in its second position.

A binding for snowboard includes a base structure and a heel support pivotally mounted to the base structure for movement between an open position for allowing a user to insert or remove their boot from the binding and a closed position for securing the users boot in the binding. An adjustable foot strap is attached to the base structure and a tensioning system is attached to the heel support and the adjustable foot strap for applying a tensioning force to the adjustable strap when the heel support is moved to the closed position and for releasing the tensioning force from the adjustable foot strap when the seal support is moved to the open position.

A highback for a snowboard binding, and method of creating same, includes a lower portion configured to couple the highback to a baseplate of the snowboard binding such that a proximal end of the first portion is proximate the baseplate. An upper portion having a first section and second section is formed from a uniform material. The first section is anchored within the lower portion and the second section extends from a distal end of the lower portion away from the proximal end.

A snow ski assembly is provided for use by an individual to slide across a snow covered surface, for example, under the force of gravity. The assembly includes a ski having a bottom wall for engaging the snow covered surface and an upturned peripheral region extending around a perimeter of the bottom wall. The bottom wall of the ski includes at least one control structure extending across at least a portion of the bottom wall, where the at least one control structure is configured to control a movement of the ski on the snow covered surface. The assembly also includes a mounting feature configured to couple a binding to the bottom wall of the ski, such that the individual can position a foot in the binding and use the ski to slide across the snow covered surface.
