  • Patent number: 5301818
    Abstract: There is provided a rack for supporting a skateboard by hanging the skateboard vertically by way of one pair of its wheels and allowing the board and remaining pair of wheels to hang below. The rack comprises a broad, flat plate mountable on a wall or other substantially vertical surface. A support shelf for a skateboard comprising two shelf parts, one for each of a pair of skateboard wheels, is located on the front face of the plate and extends outward from the plate. The support shelf has a horizontal supporting surface in the shape of the inside of a partial tube. The inside tube surface is generally cylindrical and conforms to the outer surface of the skateboard wheels. The partial tube has an arc of approximately 130.degree. to 180.degree. of a circle, measured from a point at which a vertical line tangentially intersects the surface, so that the wheels may be easily inserted from above, but such that the wheels can rest securely and be adequately supported by the supporting surface.
