Abstract
A snow sliding device include a core, a plurality of securing elements including a base with a sliding surface, a top surface, and at least a sidewall, and one or more constituents, wherein at least a constituent of the one or more constituents transitions between a first composition at a first position and a second composition at a second position, wherein the first composition includes a first proportion of a non-Newtonian material mixed with a second proportion of Newtonian material, the second composition includes a third proportion of the non-Newtonian material mixed with a fourth proportion of Newtonian material, and the first proportion is different from the third proportion.
Claims22
A snow sliding device comprising:
- a core;
- a plurality of securing elements comprising:
- a base comprising a sliding surface;
- a top surface;
- and
- at least a sidewall;
- and
- one or more constituents, wherein:
