Abstract: A skate board with two wheel mounts located on one board, in which each of the wheel mounts holds an axle carrier with a roller axis for two rollers in an elastic manner. Steering movements of the roller axes are initiated by shifting the weight of the rider. At least one of the two roller axes is pivotal about a transverse axis running transverse to the longitudinal axis of the board, so that the board can be lowered relative to the roller axis by applying weight. The board can be raised relative to the roller axis, on the other hand, by a spring force upon removal of the weight. The transverse axis is rigidly connected to the board so that lowering and raising the board will not initiate steering movements of the roller axis. The board, furthermore, has a brake which acts on the rollers if the board is raised and carries no load. The brake is released by applying weight and lowering the board.
