ABSTRACT:
A truck for a skateboard or roller skate, the truck being a unitary assembly having a structure for securing to a member for supporting a rider, the member being in the form of a skateboard or soleplate of a roller skate, the structure being generally rigid and downwardly depending from the undersurface of the rider supporting member with a lower edge lying in a plane diagonally disposed relative to the undersurface. The structure includes an axle receiving portion for receiving an axle therein with the axle being normally generally parallel to the rider supporting member and generally perpendicular to the longitudinal center line thereto. The axle receiving portion in one embodiment is connected to the lower edge. In the other embodiment a generally flexible web interconnects the lower edge with an upper edge of the axle receiving portion with the two edges in generally parallel relation, with the web in a plane normally perpendicular to the undersurface of the supporting member, the shifting of the weight of the rider deflecting the axle receiving portion relative to the rider supporting member to provide steering.
