ABSTRACT:
A skateboard has a plurality of in-line wheels rotatably mounted on the front end of the board and rear wheels disposed on either side of the rear end of the board. The left and right rear wheels are mounted incurvate with respect to the board and the in-line wheels to provide incurvated rear wheel steering for the board. The board may have a resiliently flexible portion between the in-line and rear wheels. The in-line wheels may be supported between a pair of parallel lateral flanges or they may be supported on a single flange that splits each in-line wheel. The rear wheels may be mounted on a coil and leaf spring suspension, on a transverse shaft or in housings at the rear end of the board. The rear wheels may be tapered.
