ABSTRACT:
An exercise apparatus for a skater or similar athlete includes a flexible sheet having a smooth glide surface along which the feet of the exerciser can slide. Bumper assemblies are releasably connected with opposite ends of the flexible sheet. The flexible sheet is releasably clamped between a rigid base plate and a main section of a bumper assembly. A ramp section is releasably connected with the main section of a bumper assembly. A resiliently compressible bumper strip is provided on an upwardly sloping side surface of the ramp section to engage the foot of the exerciser. To further absorb forces resulting from enagagement of an exerciser's foot against the ramp section, a pad is provided between the ramp section and the main section of a bumper assembly. A mat extends beneath the flexible sheet and ramp section of a bumper assembly to stabilize the bumper assembly.
