Abstract
A braking apparatus is provided for a skate which comprises a shoe composed of at least one quarter connected to a shell associated with a supporting frame for a plurality of wheels. The braking apparatus includes a braking element connected to a rear portion of the supporting frame adjacent the wheels. A brake arm is connected between the quarter of the skate and the braking element. The brake arm includes a first member and a second member connected together with the first member moveable with respect to the second member. The brake arm includes a switch mechanism operable between a first and second position. Upon activation of the switch mechanism from the first position to the second position, the first member of the brake arm moves away from the second member of the brake arm such that the length of the brake arm is increased and the braking element is positioned lower with respect to the wheels of the skate. Upon activation of the switch mechanism from the second position to the first position, the first member moves toward the second member of the brake arm to decrease the length of the brake arm such that the braking element is positioned higher with respect to the wheels of the skate.
