CROSSFLOW

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “CROSSFLOW” is dead; it was abandoned because the owner, Robert Lininger Jr., did not file a Statement of Use or an Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was filed on August 12 2011 and was published for opposition on December 6 2011, with a Notice of Allowance issued January 31 2012. The only goods listed are skateboard wheel bearings in class 028. Because the mark is no longer active, it does not give the owner control over the word “CROSSFLOW” in all contexts, but it does create a closer concern for uses related to skateboard wheel bearings or similar sporting goods. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions requested and granted, but no opposition or cancellation actions appear. The last meaningful event was the abandonment notice on March 9 2015. For someone considering a similar name, the risk is limited to the specific skateboard bearing market; other unrelated goods or services would be farther from the record’s scope.
