Abstract
A roller board is a board that uses wheels, caster balls, and cleats to mimic the movement of a snowboard. The roller board includes a riding board, a front roller mechanism, and a rear roller mechanism. A user stands upon the riding board and is secured to the riding board. The front roller mechanism and the rear roller mechanism each include an inline-wheeled truck, left and right caster balls, and left and right elongated cleats. The inline-wheel truck allows the roller board to roll in a forward or rearward direction. The left and right caster balls allow a light left or right lean by the user to steer the riding board in either a left or right direction. The left and right elongated cleats allow a heavy left or right lean by the user to brake the riding board from a left or right side of the riding board.
