Abstract: A collapsible skate rail is provided that includes a first bar having a first support and a second bar having a second support. The second bar is connected to the first bar by a hinge, and the first and second bar form together a two-piece bar. The hinge enables the two-piece bar to assume at least two positions. The first and second bars form an angle with the hinge at an apex in a folded position, and the first and second bars are linearly aligned in a extended position. The collapsible skate rail further includes an internal sleeve adapted to occupy a first internal space of the first bar adjacent to the hinge and a second internal space of the second bar adjacent to the hinge when the two-piece bar is in the extended position. A method of using a collapsible skate rail is provided.
