Abstract

A portable snowboard with detachable parts includes a first planar section with a first member of an interconnecting joint, and a second planar section with a second member of the interconnecting joint. The first member of the interconnecting joint is detachably fastened to the second member of the interconnecting joint to engage the first planar section with the second planar section to form the portable snowboard. An anti-folding member, detachably attached between the first planar section and the second planar section, is coplanar in construction with the first planar section and the second planar section to prevent a relative folding between the first planar section and the second planar section. Multiple communication accessories are positioned on predefined sections of the first planar section and the second planar section for recording and transmitting information regarding a snowboarding session using the portable snowboard to a base station and/or a user device.
