One attendant placed Allyson on top of a backboard, taking care not to move her too much in case she'd broken something. |
After a time, the doctor had me removed from the backboard, carted downstairs for x-rays, and finally, blessedly, sent home. |
I was strapped onto a backboard and placed on the front of a boat with an injured police lieutenant, a firefighter, and a few walking wounded. |
When a backboard shatters, it sounds sort of similar to a gunshot or a car backfiring. |
The backboard too is lacquer, ornamented with graceful figures in garden pavilions. |
Briefly, subjects stood with their heel, calf, buttocks, back, and head fixed with a strap against a vertical backboard. |
