ABSTRACT:
A braking system for an in-line roller skate includes a brake actuator arm pivotally mounted on a support shaft extending through the rearmost wheel of the skate. Brake pads are connected to a first segment of the brake actuator arm and extend behind the rear wheel. The brake actuator arm is continuously biased to maintain the brake pads, which are tire segments, out of engagement with the skate support surface. An upwardly directed force applied to the brake actuator arm by the skater pivots the arm relative to the in-line roller skate and brings the brake pads into contact with the skate support surface.
