Surfboard wax removal device

Abstract

A surfboard wax removal device, the device including a wax-engaging leading edge, the leading edge being outwardly convex.

1 . A surfboard wax removal device, the device comprising a wax-engaging leading edge, the leading edge being outwardly convex. 
     
     
         2 . A device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the leading edge is formed by part of a base of the device, the leading edge extending right around the periphery of the base. 
     
     
         3 . A device as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the leading edge is circular to thereby define a circular periphery at the base. 
     
     
         4 . A device as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein an underside of the base of the device comprises a hollow, with the leading edge located around the hollow. 
     
     
         5 . A device as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the hollow extends inwardly of the device, from the base and into a handle of the device. 
     
     
         6 . A device as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the handle is connected to the base as an extension thereof, the handle being configured with a bulbous external profile for location in a palm of a user's hand. 
     
     
         7 . A device as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein an external surface of the base extends in towards a waist of the device, with the bulbous external profile of the handle being in part defined by an external surface that extends out and away from the waist. 
     
     
         8 . A device as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein in cross-sectional profile, the leading edge is defined by a blade. 
     
     
         9 . A device as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the blade forming the leading edge is defined by an outer surface of the device and by an inner surface that extends inwardly of the device. 
     
     
         10 . A device as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the inner surface extends inwardly from the leading edge and in a manner that tapers away from the outer surface of the device. 
     
     
         11 . A device as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the outer surface is configured to define a base of the device as a frusto-conical portion. 
     
     
         12 . A surfboard wax removal device, the device comprising a wax-engaging leading edge wherein the leading edge is formed by part of a base of the device, the leading edge extending right around the periphery of the base. 
     
     
         13 . A device as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the leading edge is outwardly convex. 
     
     
         14 . A surfboard wax removal device, the device comprising a base that is configured for engaging the surfboard wax for removal thereof, and a handle extending from the base, the handle having a bulbous external profile that is configured for location in a palm of a user's hand. 
     
     
         15 . A device as claimed in  claim 14 , wherein the device comprises a wax-engaging leading edge, and wherein the leading edge is outwardly convex.
