Tridisc paradigm, with a set of constant or nearly constant diameters, when attached to an appropriate perdurable chassis, will provide a stable contact plane from which the launching into and landing from complex aerial and nonaerial ambulatory skating maneuvers, may be achieved

Abstract

The disc organizational paradigms which are herein defined, provide novel disc arrangements that can be exploited by skaters to achieve an eclectic range of aerial, nonaerial, complex and routine ambulatory skating maneuvers, with a minimum number of disc for a dynamically stable geometric pattern, thus providing a novel customizing capability for extending a skater's performance repertoire that is not a function of the skater's talent endowment.

1 . I claim a tridisc roller, which shall include barrel, semibarrel, cylindrical, spherical and semispherical shaped rollers used for skating applications, array, (A), which when anchored to an appropriate perdurable chassis, (F), will provide dynamic ambulatory stability, for roller skating mavens, as only three points, per foot, are ever in rolling contact, at one time, with the surface upon which the motion is performed, this triune in either one of two mutually exclusive geometric expressions, that of two disc at the heel end of the chassis, with one disc at the toe end of the chassis or the reverse of this triune, the toe chassis datum of disc rotation, (B), is always located in front of the virtual phalangeal joint datum, (C), the heel chassis datum of disc rotation, (D), is always located behind the virtual tarsus datum, (E), with out regard to which disc troika is being utilized.
