Abstract
A boot retaining device for use with a snowboard includes a plate equipped with straps for retaining an associated boot. A pivot body is located at a central region of the plate. The pivot body retains the plate on the board and includes a central screw or central nut. A support base is attached to the board. The support base includes threading configured for threadably engaging the central screw or nut of the pivot body. The pivot body includes a downwardly open housing which receives the support base. The threaded stem of the central screw or the threaded portion of the central nut projects downward into the housing. A length of the threaded stem of the central screw or the threaded portion of the central nut is less than or equal to a depth of the housing.
