ABSTRACT:
A mobile skating aid for providing support for a beginning skater includes a surrounding main frame supported at approximately waist-height on telescoping posts which extend upwardly from a pair of elongated runners intended to continuously contact a skating surface. The posts are arranged to enable the height of the main frame, which includes a hand rail, to be adjusted, and further to be easily collapsed and folded flat against the underside of the frame for convenient storage and transportation. A seat element flexibly suspended from the main frame at an adjustable distance below the frame at a height to be straddled by the user provides a safety catch which prevents falling even if the skater completely loses footing or traction.
