Abstract
A body 11 that constitutes a skateboard is formed into a U shape with bases of a pair of plate-like legs 14, 15 being integrated, and end portions 17, 18 of the legs 14, 15 are relatively displaceable in a thickness direction by elasticity of the body 11. The end portions 17, 18 of the legs 14, 15 are coupled by a coupling member 19. One wheel 12 is provided on a lower surface of an integral portion 16 at the base ends, and the other wheel 13 is provided on a lower surface of the coupling member 19. The step board 41 is placed between the end portions 17, 18 of the legs 14, 15, and has contact portions 46, 53 that come into contact with the legs 14, 15 by following displacement of the end portions 17, 18 of the legs 14, 15 in the thickness direction.
Claims6
