A gliding board such as a snowboard (100) having a core (130), a lower structural layer (132), an upper structural layer (134), a base element (138) attached under the lower structural layer, and a metal edge piece (136).

A gliding board such as a snowboard (100) having a core (130), a lower structural layer (132), an upper structural layer (134), a base element (138) attached under the lower structural layer, and a metal edge piece (136). A vibration-absorbing panel (120) is attached to the outer surface of the upper structural layer and a protective layer (140) is disposed over the vibration-absorbing panel and the upper structural layer. The vibration-absorbing panel is disposed in the binding attachment region (110) of the snowboard and is an integral and nonremovable part of the snowboard. The upper structural layer may include a recessed portion (235) that is sized to receive the vibration-absorbing panel, whereby the top surface of the snowboard does not have any protrusions. The snowboard includes an array of threaded inserts (152) for selective positioning and attachment of the binding base plate (150) to the snowboard over the vibration-absorbing panel.

The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 1. A gliding board comprising: a core having an upper surface and a lower surface; an upper structural layer that substantially covers the upper surface of the core, wherein the upper str
The embodiments of the invention in which an exclusive property or privilege is claimed are defined as follows: 1. A gliding board comprising: a core having an upper surface and a lower surface; an upper structural layer that substantially covers the upper surface of the core, wherein the upper structural layer includes an outer surface having a binding attachment region and a peripheral region, wherein the binding attachment region includes a recessed portion; a lower structural layer that substantially covers the lower surface of the core; a pliable vibration-absorbing panel attached in the recessed portion of the binding attachment region of the outer surface of the upper structural layer such that the vibration-absorbing panel does not substantially protrude in the binding attachment region; a protective layer overlying the outer surface of the upper structural layer, the protective layer also overlying the vibration-absorbing panel; and a base element attached to the lower structural layer. 2. The gliding board of claim 1, wherein the vibration-absorbing panel includes a first portion and a second portion, and wherein the first and second portions are not contiguous. 3. The gliding board of claim 1, wherein the upper structural layer is cap-shaped and sized to receive the core such that the upper structural layer defines sidewalls for the gliding board. 4. The gliding board of claim 1, further comprising a pair of sidewall members disposed along a periphery of the gliding board between the upper structural layer and the lower structural layer. 5. The gliding board of claim 1, wherein the core is formed primarily from a material selected from wood and polymeric foam. 6. The gliding board of claim 5, wherein the upper structural layer and the lower structural layer are formed primarily from a reinforced composite material. 7. A gliding board comprising: a core substantially encased by a structural assembly including an upper structural layer and a lower structural layer, wherein the upper structural layer includes a forward binding attachment region having a recessed portion, a rearward binding attachment region having a recessed portion, and a peripheral region; a first pliable vibration-absorbing panel disposed in the recessed portion of the forward binding attachment region of the upper structural layer and a second pliable vibration-absorbing panel disposed in the recessed portion of the rearward binding attachment region of the upper structural layer such that the vibration-absorbing panel does not substantially protrude in the binding attachment region; a plurality of threaded inserts disposed through the core and the upper structural layer; a protective layer affixed over and substantially covering the upper structural layer and overlying the first and second vibration-absorbing panels such that the vibration-absorbing panels are integral to the gliding board; and a base element and an edge element attached to the structural assembly and defining a bottom surface of the gliding board. 8. The gliding board of claim 7, wherein the upper structural layer is cap-shaped and sized to receive the core, such that the upper structural layer defines sidewalls of the structural assembly. 9. The gliding board of claim 7, wherein the structural assembly further comprises a pair of peripheral sidewall members between the upper structural layer and the lower structural layer. 10. The gliding hoard of claim 7, wherein the core is formed primarily from a material selected from wood and polymeric foam. 11. The gliding board of claim 10, wherein the upper structural layer and lower structural layer are formed primarily from a reinforced composite material. 12. A method for making a gliding board comprising the steps of: forming a gliding board core having an upper surface and a lower surface; attaching an upper structural layer to the core, substantially covering the upper surface of the core, the upper structural layer defining a recessed portion; attaching a lower structural layer to the core, substantially covering the lower surface of the core; attaching a base element and edge piece to the lower structural layer to define a lower surface of the gliding board; attaching a pliable vibration-absorbing panel in the recessed portion of the upper structural layer at a binding attachment region of the upper structural layer such that the vibration-absorbing panel does not substantially protrude in the binding attachment region; and attaching a protective layer to the upper structural layer substantially covering the upper structural layer and the vibration-absorbing panel. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the upper structural layer is cap-shaped such that the upper structural layer defines structural sidewalls for the gliding board.
