Abstract:
1. A snowboard binding for securely placing a snowboard boot, the snowboard binding comprising: a snowboard binding base; a strap with a strap surface, a strap adjuster, and a hook, wherein the strap has a fixed hinge on a first side of the strap and the hook on a second side of the strap; a latch which can receive the hook for forming a closed position for the strap, wherein the strap can be tightened with the strap adjuster to hold the snowboard boot securely in the closed position; and a spring-loaded locking plate transversely contacting a locking lever with at least two spring elements, which are parallel to each other, interposed between the spring-loaded locking plate and the locking lever, wherein the locking lever transversely acts on the spring-loaded locking plate to make the spring-loaded locking plate either protrude into an initially non-toothed snowboard binding disc to lock a rotational position of the snowboard binding, or retract from the initially non-toothed snowboard binding disc to release the rotational position of the snowboard binding.
