Blades for skateboarding on ice were invented back in 1966, and you used to see some advertised in the 70’s and 80’s as we have covered extensively before. In 1996 Iceman Products, Inc out of Sonora, California filled a trademark for Iceman Blades. I’m guessing these were probably advertised in the skate mags too. How well did they sell? Probably not too well if there’s a guy in Arizona who allegedly has 1000 units left, which can be yours for around $22 each. If you want something more upscale, you can get Xtreme Ice Blades for $130 (!)
– Thanks to Quee for the tip.
Since Iceman Blades came first, they are also featured first. Keep scrolling for modern Xtreme Ice Blades.
Xtreme Ice Blades are slightly reminiscent of Chris Thomson’s student design project from the mid 2000’s.
This video is pretty Xtreme™!…

Iceman blades. Seems like a great idea. What could possibly go wrong. lol! Truth be told I would love to have a packaged set hanging randomly in my garage.(the artwork alone is worth the price of admission)
