Abstract
A skateboard has a platform that extends longitudinally from a first end to a second end, the first and second ends being separated by a central portion. The platform body is formed so that the platform is laterally planar, and longitudinally bent upwardly at the first end, and bent downwardly at the second end, relative to the central portion. A first truck mounting structure is provided adjacent the first end, and a second truck mounting structure is provided adjacent the second end.
Claims6
A skateboard comprising:
- a platform having a first surface and a second surface that each extend to an outer perimeter, the platform extending longitudinally from a first end to a second end, the first and second ends being separated by a central portion;
- the platform body formed so that the platform is laterally planar, and longitudinally bent upwardly at the first end, and bent downwardly at the second end, relative to the central portion;
- a first truck mounting structure adjacent the first end;
- a second truck mounting structure adjacent the second end;
- further including a mounting structure comprising:
- a cylindrical securing mechanism having a hollow top end sized to receive a vertical post, the top end being pivotally mounted on a lower end, separated by a flange extending outwardly from the top end;
- an externally threaded stump that extends from a platform engaging structure;
- a cap that fits over the securing mechanism and threadedly engages with the externally threaded stump;
- wherein the platform engaging structure is a curved rigid plate that comprises a pair of laterally spaced protrusions and a locking lip that extends downwardly and fits over the outer perimeter of the platform, angling so that it secures on the underside of the platform to lock the mounting structure onto the platform, further being positioned between the protrusions, the protrusions being shaped to frictionally engage a pair of apertures through corners of the platform.
