Improvements made to wheeled skate-skis, set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 4,943,075, which are equipped with brakes, and used by a sportsperson who enjoys skating-skiing on the level, going uphill, and/or coasting downhill on various terrains, are: foot supporting channel cross sectional bodies made of injected molded plastic; wraparound binding portions secured to these bodies with fasteners to accommodate different foot sizes; longitudinal slots in flanges of these bodies which accommodate straps such as toe strap, and strapping material is cut, wrapped around one side of a buckle at one end and at other end thereof this strapping material in two layers is sewn on an angle to allow placement of a dowel, which removably secures strap to body at slot, with the angle of sewn slot providing a forward angle positioning of strap and buckle, and length of each longitudinal slot allows for movement of buckle positions, fore and aft, for different shoe sizes, and additional angular slots are sewn into toe strap to allow for different effective overall lengths of toe strap and buckle; top ankle support strap of wraparound binding has outside to inside, and inside to outside strap portions, modified to accept strapping material sewn to hook and/or loop fastening materials, in turn sewn onto shortened PVC portions of these straps, to thereafter accept hook and/or loop fastening materials sewn on separate strapping material; additional support and/or comfort is provided by inserts; and brake cables are kept close to ones body, by using leg straps.
