I bought this piece of gear at a swap meet. Can you tell me more about it?

I think they are rock-n-rollers. I remember a partner of mine in the late 80s early 90s had a set. I thought the lowe(camp) balls were better.

You can get some more from ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Set-Ro…

More info is here needlesports.com/NeedleSpor…

and

and even a patent

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
