Abstract
A device for adjusting the position of a binding on a glide board. The device includes a base plate equipped with an orifice and an edge of the orifice includes a first peripheral surface portion; a disc having a contour that exceeds that of the orifice and including an edge that has a second surface portion adapted to come into contact with the first surface portion when the disc gets nested in the orifice; an anchoring device of the disc on the board that can be actuated by tightening so as maintain contact between the surface portions, wherein at least one of the surface portions is substantially smooth and constitutes a sliding ramp for the other surface portion, and wherein the device includes a rotational stop of the base plate in an engagement position when the anchoring device is are actuated by tightening, and able to become disengaged when the anchoring device is are only partially loosened, thus allowing a rotational movement of the base plate with respect to disc. The invention facilitates the adjustment of the angular position of a binding on the glide board.
