ABSTRACT:
The wheel truck for a skateboard or a rollerskate includes a roller coaxially mounted between the left and right skate wheels. This roller is of a lesser radius than the radius of the skate wheels so that it will normally be clear of objects when the wheels are rolling on a flat terrain. However, the roller will engage objects such as a curb edge extending upwardly between the wheels a distance greater that the difference between the radii of the roller and wheels and roll over such objects to thereby minimize loss of momentum of a skater.
