Wheelstop!

The new inline brake.   For a new way of skating!

              

The brake requires less power than the old heel brake. It also yields more braking power.

Install the brake on one or both of your inline skates. The brake is of course deinstallable.

See how the brake is installed!

Smooth, but effective and synchronized variable braking on two wheels, including the use of two disc brakes on one wheel! Gives you better control and better balance!

Too much braking power is automatically reduced as the skate's toe end is then forced down. Adjust the brake's properties, including braking angle, to your own liking.

Also; the suspension of wheels in the brake's frame will have a shock absorbing effect and reduce the vibrations that may be tiresome for feet and legs.

Johan has just tested the brake, and gives it a thumb up. He has no problems verifying that this brake is more efficient than the old heel brake.

and pay attention to the braking power!

Words from a skater:

Hi,
You seem to have a brilliant product. I congratulate on your engineering.
It seems to me you have solved a huge problem for heavier skaters like myself. I have had some bad falls. On hills the rubber brake pads are useless.
As a retired engineer I can't tell you how impressed I am that someone could think outside the box. I have been studying the problem of braking without any success. You took a different direction that I had not even thought of.
Again, I salute your brilliance!

Ben Blyton from Kentucky, USA


The ground/street does not touch parts of the brake and interfere with its function, when using normal wheel sizes. See examples.

Before 1960 few ice-hockey players used helmets. This has changed. Why?
Before 1970 few people used safety belts in cars. This has changed. Why?
Before 1980 few people on bicycles used helmets. This has changed. Why?
Before 2008 few people on inlines used real brakes. Will this also change?

In the 3 first cases the answer is that people felt hampered by these added safety measures, but got used to them. People skating on inlines should not feel hampered by using a brake. This brake even has an element of added comfort.


Finally;
Would it be safe to brake the speed of a bicycle by pressing a piece of rubber to the ground?
