Abstract
A skateboard simulator provides a stable platform for wheeled skateboard-type actions. The simulator has a pair of spaced truck-like elastomeric support means mounted to a deck to simulate the response of a conventional skateboard to user actions. Spaced contact lobe elements provide a frictional contact with the ground while flexing in response to user action to simulate the response of wheeled skateboard. The support means are preferably of a unitary urethane construction with the contact lobe element portions being of a hollow configuration.
Claims12
A skateboard simulator, comprising:
- a deck;
- and
- a pair of spaced elastomeric support means mounted to the deck and extending downwardly therefrom for simulating the response of a conventional skateboard to the motions of a user while preventing lateral and longitudinal motion of the simulator when the support means are in contact with the ground, the support means each comprising a pair of laterally-spaced tapered contact lobe elements projecting from a base.
A skateboard simulator, comprising:
- a deck;
- and a pair of spaced, elastomeric support means mounted to the deck, each having a pair of laterally-spaced lobes having a bottom contact point, tapered inner sidewall,
- and a generally vertical outer sidewall and an interior cavity terminating in an oval aperture through the sidewall.
