Sport board stand

Abstract

A Sport Board Stand has a Base, a Main Member protruding from the Base, perpendicular to the Base Top Surface, and a plurality of Cross Members protruding from the Main Member perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the Main Member. Sport boards are placed on the Sport Board Stand, between any pair of Cross members, with the longitudinal axis of the sport board relatively parallel to the longitudinal axis of the Main Member, and a wide surface of the sport board relatively planar to one of the Cross Members between which it has been placed. The weight of the sport board is rested on the Base of the Sport Board Stand and a wide surface of the sport board is rested or leaned against one of the Cross Members between which it has been placed. In addition, a means of securing sport boards is provided via Flexible Cords protruding from the Main Member, elastic enough and long enough to reach the distal ends of the Cross Members. A Flexible Cord is pulled around the sport board and the Flexible Cord Retaining Loop is secured to the Flexible Cord Retaining Portion at the distal end of the Cross Member against which the sport board is rested or leaned.

1 . A freestanding stand for the storage and/or display of sport boards, skis, poles, wet suites, and other sports equipment and the like, comprising of;
 a Base ( 1 );   a Main Member Retaining Portion ( 2 ), extending from said base, said Main Member Retaining Portion defining a Base Top Surface, said Base Top Surface being substantially parallel to said Base;   a Main Member ( 3 ), protruding from said Main Member Retaining Portion, wherein the longitudinal axis of said Main Member is substantially perpendicular to said Base Top Surface;   a plurality of Cross Member Retaining Apertures ( 4 ), penetrating said Main Member, said Cross Member Retaining Apertures being substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said Main Member and said Cross Member Retaining Apertures being angularly displaced from one another, axially about the longitudinal axis of said Main Member;   a plurality of Flexible Cord Retaining Apertures ( 7 ), penetrating said Main Member, said Flexible Cord Retaining Apertures being substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of said Main Member and said Flexible Cord Retaining Apertures being angularly displaced from one another, axially about the longitudinal axis of said Main Member;   a plurality of Cross Members ( 5 ), said Cross Members protruding from said Cross Member Retaining Apertures; and   a plurality of Flexible Cords ( 8 ), said Flexible Cords protruding from said Flexible Cord Retaining Apertures and being elastic and of length sufficient to reach the distal end of a nearest Cross Member.   
   
   
       2 . The stand of  claim 1 , wherein a plurality of Wheel Retaining Portions ( 10 ), extend from said Base, said Wheel Retaining Portions defining a Base Bottom Surface, said Base Bottom Surface being substantially parallel to said Base Top Surface. 
   
   
       3 . The stand of  claim 2 , wherein a plurality of Wheels ( 11 ), extend from said Wheel Retaining Portions. 
   
   
       4 . The stand of  claim 3 , wherein a Flexible Cord Retaining Portion ( 6 ), extends from each of the distal ends of each of said Cross Members. 
   
   
       5 . The stand of  claim 4 , wherein a Flexible Cord Retaining Loop ( 9 ), extends from the distal ends of each of said Flexible Cords.
