Abstract
A ski binding includes a soleplate, integral with a boot sole or adapted to carry a boot, to which a plate is hinged at one end about a transverse axis, this plate having an opening with a bevelled edge which passes about and comes to jam under the head of a pin fixed perpendicular to the ski. A spring urged locking member acts on the other end of the soleplate to releasably hold said other end against pivoting about said transverse axis or about said pin, and to releasably jam said opening under the head of the pin. A fixture can be provided for locking said plate on the ski whereby, when said locking member is disengaged, the soleplate is freed for pivoting about the transverse axis e.g. during ski touring.
