A conversion assembly for converting an in-line roller skate to an ice skate for use on ice. The roller skate is of a type having a boot with a sole and a frame structure mounted thereto. The frame structure includes two longitudinally extending, spaced apart parallel support members provided with at least three sets of transversely aligned bores longitudinally spaced apart thereon. At least three wheels are disposed longitudinally between the support members and rotatably mounted thereto by fastening means which includes a fastening element for extending through each wheel and related set of aligned bores in the support members. The conversion assembly comprises a thin longitudinally extending skating blade having a sharp bottom edge adapted to engage the ice and at least three upstanding tab portions longitudinally spaced apart along the top thereof At least three sets of first and second clamping elements are adapted to be disposed between the support members in place of the wheels and have opposed clamping surfaces for frictionally engaging the tab portions. The clamping elements are provided with aligned holes therein through which the fastening elements extend to securely clamp the skating blade to the frame structure. The tab portions of the skating blade and the clamping elements have cooperative mating means to resist movement of the skating blade relative to the frame structure.
