brake on the roller blade

Question
Today I went out to skate and the brake on my rollerblade is down even with the wheels so I couldn't skate.  I tried to move it, and it wouldn't budge...is there some trick to angling my brake so I can skate?  The booklet that comes with the skates was useless...
Thanks

Answer
Hi Debbie,
  It's pretty hard to tell you how to adjust your brake without seeing it or at least knowing what skate you have.  Send me the name of company that made your skate and the name of the model that you have, then hopefully I can help you.

  I'll wait to hear from you.
