US 2021/0046969 A1 · STEERABLE SLEDDING SYSTEM

Abstract

Embodiments described herein are related to a steerable sledding system. The steerable sledding system may include a steering structure designed to enable a user to steer the steerable sledding system. The steering structure may include a first substantially horizontal portion that forms a first rear edge of the steering structure and sidewalls. The first substantially horizontal portion may form a first opening proximate the first rear edge. The steerable sledding system may further include a platform structure designed to support the user of the steerable sledding system. The platform structure may form a second opening proximate a second front edge of the platform structure. The steerable sledding system may further include a pivoting device designed to connect the steering structure and the platform structure via the first opening and the second opening to enable the steering structure and the platform structure to pivot relative to each other.

Dependent claims

A steerable sledding system comprising:

a steering structure configured to enable a user to steer the steerable sledding system, the steering structure comprising:
a first substantially horizontal portion that forms a first rear edge of the steering structure, wherein the first substantially horizontal portion forms a first opening proximate the first rear edge;
and
first curved sidewalls that extend upward from the first substantially horizontal portion to form a front edge, a first side edge, and a second side edge of the steering structure, wherein the front edge, the first side edge, and the second side edge are disposed above the first substantially horizontal portion;
a platform structure configured to support the user, wherein the platform structure forms a second opening proximate a second front edge of the platform structure;
and
a pivoting device configured to connect the steering structure and the platform structure via the first opening and the second opening to enable the steering structure and the platform structure to pivot relative to each other.
