A protective case for large objects including a lock housing formed from a first section and a second section, both of the sections including at least one external subsection and at least one internal subsection configured to telescope inside the external subsection; and an extension lock comprising a lock housing and a compression lock, the lock housing including a screw-threaded channel, and the compression comprising at least one screw-threaded shaft with a compressive component on the interior end and a lock handle on the exterior end, the screw-threaded shaft configured to matingly engage with the screw-threaded channel of the lock housing; the compression lock configured to descend in the lock housing and compressingly lock the internal subsection in an extended position upon locking rotation of the compression lock; and the compression lock configure to ascend in the lock housing upon unlocking rotation of the cam latch.

A device that secures an object to the user's body, hands free, while carrying multiple types of bulky items is provided. The carrying device may include at least a pair of first straps and a second strap having a plurality of loops spaced apart along its length. Each strap terminates at opposing ends providing complementary and adjustable connectors, so that when each of the two first straps selectively engages one loop of the plurality the loops, many different types of bulky items may be secured to the body of user when the connectors are locked, thereby leaving the user hands free while transporting bulky objects.

A wall rack includes first and second mountable brackets, each including a plurality of spaced arms extending outwardly from the bracket for supporting items thereon. One or more arms of each bracket include a pivotable extension deployable to support wider items and storable when not needed.

A new wall rack includes first and second mountable brackets, each including a plurality of spaced arms extending outwardly from the bracket for supporting items thereon. One or more arms of each bracket include a pivotable extension deployable to support wider items and storable when not needed.

A stand for a skateboard or other board that is capable of folding flat for shipping, storage, and store display of the stand, but that can be folded into a three-dimensional shape capable of holding a skateboard upright, either vertically or horizontally, for storage and/or for display of the skateboard.

The present invention provides a motorized skate having a balance control system adapted to maintain fore-and-aft balance of a platform of the skate about a wheel arrangement. The wheel arrangement defines a pivot point for the platform. A motor arrangement is adapted to drive the wheel arrangement so as to allow for the balance control system to maintain fore-and-aft balancing of the platform about the wheel arrangement.

A back board and a method of holding a skateboard on a person's back are described. A back board can include a magnet infused skateboard or a magnet mounting assembly, attached to a skateboard. A back-mounted magnet infused holster, wherein, wearing the back-mounted magnet infused holster under or over clothing, the first magnet in or on the skateboard is configured so that together with the second magnet in the holster, the skateboard will hold to the back of ones back when placed.

A foot-deck-based vehicle includes a support structure having a longitudinal axis, a first foot-deck portion, and a second foot-deck portion. Each of the first foot-deck portion and the second foot-deck portion have a foot support surface. The foot support surfaces of the first and second foot-deck portions are positioned to support first and second feet of a rider respectively. The foot-deck-based vehicle further includes at least one wheel that is rotationally connected to the support structure for rotation about a lateral axis. The first and second foot-deck portions are movably connected at least indirectly to each other and are movable between a use position and a stowage position.
