ABSTRACT:
A support device for supporting a skater comprising a first extensible frame of inverted U-shaped configuration, the first frame having a first and a second end. A first handle is rigidly secured to the first frame between the first and second end for supporting the skater. The device also includes a second extensible frame of inverted U-shaped configuration, the second frame being spaced and parallel relative to the first frame. The second frame has a first and a second extremity. A second handle is rigidly secured to the second frame between the first and second extremities for supporting the skater such that in use of the device, the skater is disposed between the handles. First and second laterally extensible supports extend between the first and second frames such that, in use of the device, the skater is disposed between the supports, the arrangement being such that adjustment of a first distance between the supports and a second distance between the frames is permitted so that the device provides adjustable support according to the size and skating ability of the skater. Caster are secured to the ends and the extremities for permitting the skater to develop balance and to practice skating techniques while the skater is supported by the handles.
