ABSTRACT:
A guard for use on in-line roller skates, to permit the wearer of the in-line roller skates to be safely ambulant comprises a main body portion, a substantially solid base member, opposed left and right substantially rigid side walls extending upwardly from the base member so as to define a wheel-receiving trough above the base member, and a ground contacting bottom surface. First and second loop-shaped securing members are connected to the main body portion for looped engagement around the toe portion and rear portion respectively of the boot of the skate. In a first embodiment, forward and rearward blocking portion are disposed on the main body portion, such that when the guard is in place on the in-line roller skate, the forward and rearward blocking portion are disposed forwardly and rearwardly, respectively, of at least one of the wheels of the in-line roller skate in intimately contacting relation therewith, so as to generally preclude fore and aft rolling motion, respectively, of the in-line roller skate along the base member. In a second embodiment, the first and second side walls each comprise a generally frictional top surface shaped to receive the elongate rail portions of the wheel receiving frame of the skate, in weight bearing relation, without the wheels of the in-line roller skate touching the base member.
