Problems solved by technology

Ever since inline skates became popular and, to a certain extent, from the time of the older roller skates, the problem of using those same skates off track has been a problem.
When comes time to climb stairs or move around inside office buildings, use public transit or roll down steep hills, rolling wheels can be a hazard to both the users and surrounding people.
As usual, some inventors like things heavy, bulky and impractical with complex attachment means while others are a bit more practical and provide for rather uncumbersome and easy to use skate wheel covers. walking.
The device is also small, light weight and easy to store when not in use.
Despite the numerous variations found in the prior art, the problem remains that users with long feet require long skate wheel covers which are cumb

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

[0030] An inline skate (10) has a pliable yet resillient antiskid device (12) installed over its wheels (14, 14′, 14 ). The antiskid device (12) consists of a pair of wheel receptacles (16, 16′). Each receptacle (16, 16′) only cover the bottom part of the wheels (14, 14′, 14″). A first receptacle (16) receives the front wheel (14) and one of the middle wheels (14″) and the other receptacle (16′) receives the rear wheel (14′) and the other middle wheel (14″). The anti skid device (12) consists mainly of a high friction (hence antiskid) elastomer means (18) cojoined to and covering a substantially large part of the exterior surface which is a made of a synthetic resin to give it strength and rigidity. Two straps (28, 28′) are fixedly...
