A roller skate formed of a plate with an upper surface to receive a shoe and having a forward and rearward downwardly extending suspension housing, each housing having an opening therethrough, an axle extending through each suspension housing opening having means at each end for receiving a skate wheel, a first and second elastomeric member received in each suspension housing in spaced apart relationship, each of the elastomeric members having an opening receiving the axle, bolts extending through threaded openings at the top of the suspension housing, the ends of the bolts engaging the upper surfaces of the elastomeric members so that the compressive force applied by the elastomeric members to the axle may be adjusted by threadably positioning the bolts. Another arrangement includes each axle in two portions hinged in the middle so that each roller skate wheel is independently resiliently supported relative to the skate body.

In a roller skate comprising: a skate body with an upper surface adaptable to receive a shoe thereon, and having forward and rearward downwardly extending suspension housings, at least one housing having an opening therethrough the axis of the opening being transverse the vertical plane of the skate body longitudinal axis; an axle extending through each said suspension housing opening having an intermediate point and means at each end thereof to receive a skate wheel; a first and second elastomeric member received in said suspension housing opening in spaced apart relationship, each elastomeric member engaging said axle in an area between the axle intermediate point and the portion receiving a skate wheel; and means of separately adjustably varying the compressive force applied by each said elastomeric member against deflection of said axle in the direction towards said skate body.
