ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a braking system and methods for slowing or stopping a roller skate. The braking system includes a male member which is attached to a back end of the roller skate's frame. A female member is slidably engaged with the male member such that the female member may be translated both toward and away from a skating surface. The female member may also be pivoted within a vertical plane which passes through a longitudinal axis of the frame during translation. A brake pad is attached to the female member, and a mechanism is provided for translating the female member relative to the male member so as to engage the brake pad with the skating surface.
