  • the present invention relates to recreational boards and methods of manufacturing recreational boards.
  • Flat boards include skateboards, training water skis, and skim boards.
  • flat boards typically comprise a substantially flat wooden substrate with various protective coatings applied thereto.
  • Flat boards may alternatively be constructed of fiberglass substrates or other suitable materials. Often, these flat boards are formed from laminated sheets of material.
  • One method of decorating a flat board is to paint, print, or adhere a graphic or other aesthetic coating directly to the flat board itself. Similarly, if the flat board has a protective coating already applied, the graphic may be applied to that protective coating. Further, it is not uncommon to apply a final protective coating over the applied graphic.
  • Contoured boards often include bodyboards, kickboards, non-training water skis, and the like.
  • Contoured boards include substantially undulating or irregular surfaces such as substantially concave or convex surface features. Contoured boards are most often constructed through the use of injection molding, compression molding, and centrifugal force molding processes. With injection molding processes, a hard shell is formed in a mold and then injected with an expanding foam to add stiffness. Decorative elements are typically either applied to the molded shell or form features in the molded shell itself. Boards created through compression molding processes are formed through a process of simply squeezing a material, often polyurethane, into a desired shape by application of heat and pressure to the material in a mold. Decorative elements are usually added to compression molded boards during the application of heat and pressure.
  • a decorative graphic printed on a thin sheet of material is disposed between the mold and the material in the mold.
  • the heat and pressure typically causes the thin sheet carrying the decorative graphic to both take the shape of the mold and adhere to the material in the mold.
  • the thin sheet is often made of Formica or other types of high-density plastic laminates, including melamine.
  • the graphic instead of having a graphic printed on to the thin plastic sheet, the graphic may be embedded onto or otherwise integral to the thin sheet.
  • centrifugal force molding processes a pelletized or powdered thermoplastic material is placed in a mold and heated. As the thermoplastic material melts, the mold is spun in various different directions. The centrifugal force generated by the spinning mold causes the thermoplastic material to evenly flow into the shape of the mold. When the thermoplastic material is cooled, the mold is removed, leaving a hollow shell. The hollow shell is then filled with expanding foam. Then, decorative elements are applied to the molded shell.
  • a typical skateboard comprises a laminated wooden deck curved upward on each end with a nonskid surface on the top of the deck and a printed graphic on the bottom of the deck.

  • the gouge may cause undesired interaction with the water resulting in increased friction and perhaps resulting in an undesired lift up from the water, pull down into the water, or veering to the left or right.
  • the graphical film is a high-definition 3-dimensional graphical film having a very durable surface finish.
  • the graphical film is a high-definition perspective- dependent visual graphical film in which images change as the orientation of the film with respect to the viewer is changed.
  • the present invention provides significant advantages, including: (1 ) the high- definition graphics are very attractive, particularly to younger audiences; (2) the graphical film is very durable, so that it can be affixed to the surface of the recreational board with no additional coatings or treatments with a resulting improved durable surface; and (3) graphical films with high-definition lenticules can be molded and cured integrally with the recreational board.

  • the present invention represents the discovery that adhering high-definition graphical films to recreational boards may be used to improve the aesthetics, performance, and durability of the recreational boards.
  • advances in digital imaging now allow for the creation of spectacular images by combining high- definition graphical film lenses and specially formatted images.
  • high-definition graphical films incorporating lenticular lens technology combined with corresponding specially formatted images result in particularly eye-catching and striking images.
  • other high-definition graphical films may alternatively incorporate polarized lens technology, lenses which selectively magnify images, or no lens technology at all.
  • the term “recreational board” is intended to include skateboards, water skis, body boards, float boards, kick boards, skim boards, surfboards, and the like.
  • the term “recreational board” is intended to include boards with similar structure to the recreational boards listed above even if the boards are used for non-recreational purposes.
  • the recreational board is a skateboard 10 comprising a deck member 12, at least one truck assembly 14, and wheels 16.
  • Deck member 12 is preferably formed by laminating a plurality of layers of wooden veneer together to form a strong, semi-flexible board.
  • Truck assemblies 14 are preferably rigidly connected to a bottom surface 18 of deck member 12.
  • Wheels 16 are preferably rotatably attached to truck assemblies 14.
  • a high-definition graphical film 20 is applied to bottom surface 18. ln the preferred embodiment, high-definition film 20 incorporates lenticular lens technology.
  • the preferred lenticular technology comprises a lenticular sheet that contains a precise parallel array of lenticules or lenses. Each lens is capable of magnifying corresponding image data.
  • the lens sheet is optically clear with a smooth reverse side.
  • the lenticular sheet may be laid over an image printed on other media to achieve the desired image effects, in the present invention, it is preferred that the desired image be printed directly onto the smooth reverse side of the lens sheet.
  • the preferred method of printing the lenticular image is directed to lens lithographic printing, more specifically, offset printing. From high-resolution films, image impression plates can be exposed and positioned in precise register on a four-color process press. However, the more preferred presses are six-color process presses that allow a blanket background white to be printed in the same production pass.
  • the blanket background white reflects more light than the inked image alone, thereby increasing the perceived brightness of the resultant image.
  • a more opaque white may be added after the inks are dry.
  • the opaque white layer may be added by ultraviolet ink, silk screen, laminated cover stock, or thermal laminated polypropylene. Then, a protective coating is preferably applied to prevent the printed image from being scraped off or otherwise damaged during handling.
  • Lenticular lenses can be combined with images printed in and on paper, plastic, and other media to achieve the desired image presentation.
  • Lenticular lens technology can produce a variety of special image effects popularly referred to as "3- dimensional,” “phase flip,” “morph,” “zoom/scroll,” and “full motion.”
  • Three- dimensional effects add a perceived depth, dimensionalization, or layering of art, photos and type.
  • Phase flip effects cause the viewer to see different images such that the images flip from one image to the other and can be viewed individually.
  • Morph effects illustrate an image as is transformed into another image.
  • Zoom/Scroll effects illustrate an image as it changes in size while remaining in focus.
  • Full motion effects enable the viewer to see short portions of a movie, video, or animated clip.
  • lenticular lens technology may be used to create any one of the above effects, the effects above may also be combined to render a variety of effect combinations. Further, lenticular lens technology is not limited to producing the above imaging effects. Instead, lenticular lens technology is a medium within which a designer may create new image effects. With the materials and methods of the present invention, any of the above described effects may be incorporated into a graphical film and applied to any recreational board.
  • graphical film 20 depicts a 3-dimensional image, such as a cartoon or other "cool" scene. The 3-dimensional image is a high- definition, high-resolution image that appears to have significant depth or thickness.
  • Graphical film 20 is a plastic film preferably having a thickness of about 0.0135 inches. Due to this thickness, graphical film 20 is best suited for use on flat, non-contoured and non-concave skateboard decks. However, it will be appreciated that graphical film 20 is curved upward at each end to conform to the upturned ends of deck member 12. Although the flexibility of graphical film 20 may be increased by reducing the thickness of graphical film 20, the perceived depth of the resultant image may be correspondingly decreased.
  • the recreation board is a skateboard 22 comprising a deck member 24, at least one truck assembly 26, and wheels 28.
  • Deck member 24 is preferably formed by laminating a plurality of layers of wooden veneer together to form a strong, semi-flexible board.
  • Truck assemblies 26 are preferably rigidly connected to a bottom surface 30 of deck member 24.
  • Wheels 28 are preferably rotatably attached to truck assemblies 26.
  • a high- definition graphical film 32 is laminated onto bottom surface 30.
  • Graphical film 32 is a phase flip type lenticular film as described above.
  • Graphical film 32 produces a visual effect of motion when skateboard 22 is moved with respect to the user's visual point of view, similar to polarized graphics.
  • Graphical film 32 is a plastic film having a thickness of about 0.0055 inches. Due to this thickness, graphical film 32 is sufficiently flexible for use on either substantially flat or contoured recreational boards.
  • the underlying image may be a collage of multiple images, each independently producing a visual effect of motion when skateboard 22 is moved.
