Abstract
A single gliding board, of the type comprising: PA1 a board (1) of maximum thickness (E) and a width (L) in the central zone, having a longitudinal axis (2) corresponding substantially to the axis along which it moves; PA1 two bindings, respectively front (8) and rear (9), including a plate of thickness (F), each having a longitudinal mid-axis which form respective angles .alpha. and .beta. with the longitudinal axis of the board, these bindings (8, 9) being intended to accommodate the shoes (6, 7) of the user in order to form shoe/binding assemblies (4, 5), PA1 wedges (14), of height H, for raising the bindings relative to the board (1), wherein at least one shoe/binding assembly overhangs, at least on one side of the board, by a distance (D), and wherein the height H of the wedge (14) satisfies the following formula: EQU H.gtoreq.D-(E+F) in which D represents the distance between the corner of the edge, on the one hand, and the projection of the shoe/binding assembly (4, 5) into the plane of the lower surface of the board at the outermost point (52), on the other hand.
