Abstract
An improved skate with in-line wheels or with an ice-skating blade, includes a shoe which is articulated in the metatarsal region so as to form a sole which is divided into a front part and a rear part. The front part is rigidly associated with a first supporting frame for the wheels or for a blade, while the rear part is slidingly associated with a second supporting frame for the wheels or for a blade. The first and second frames are mutually articulated approximately in the region below the metatarsus, allowing to improve the adaptation of the skate to the natural movement of the foot.
