The ice ramps skate (I.R.S.), patent pending, is a combination of an aggressive inline skate and an ice skate. Currently, the blade system is designed around the Universal Frame System (UFS) used by inline skate manufacturers. This allows the frame to be mated to any aggressive inline skate boot. The frame uses a blade that is split in two pieces as though two mini-ice hockey blades were placed inline. The center gap, also known as an H-Block, is used for grinding. The initial prototypes for the frame have been mocked up and are being prototyped in the next few weeks.
