Abstract

A ski brake for skis utilizing a spring construction such as is illustrated in U.S. Pat. No. 4,014,563. The spring is composed of a U-shaped portion having a pair of generally parallel legs and a connecting cross-part. The heel holder of a ski binding has a projection thereon which cooperates with the U-shaped part to effectively hold down the ski brake in the cocked or ready position without requiring a direct engagement of the ski boot with the U-shaped part.
