Abstract:
A combined tether and support for a snowboard includes an adjustable support strap that is releasably connected at its upper end to a harness worn on the body of the user and releasably connected at its lower end to a snowboard to support the weight of the snowboard when the user is riding a chair lift. A short tether extends between the support strap and a lower leg portion of the user to tether the snowboard to the user when the snowboard is being ridden. Adjustment of the length of the support strap enables the user to ride the snowboard normally when the strap is lengthened, and supports the weight of the snowboard when the strap is shortened and the user is sitting on a chair lift. Quick-connect couplings are provided between the support strap, snowboard and harness.
