Abstract
An in-line roller skate and brake utilizes an improved braking assembly in which the brake pad is retained to the brake housing by an interacting tongue and slot system which causes the pad to be tightly forced into the housing during braking. The upper face of the pad is retained to the housing, and compression of the rubber pad forces a slot on the periphery of the pad tightly into locking engagement with the housing so as to provide a substantially improved retention system for the brake pad during heavy braking operation.
