Abstract
This safety ski binding for protecting the skier's leg in case of abnormal lateral torsion and forward and backward fall comprises essentially a hollow case pivoted to the ski and enclosing spring controlling the pivotal movements of the case as well as hooks carried by this case and cooperating with studs projecting laterally from the ski boot. The protection is ensured in case of combined torsion and toe-lift and heel-lift movements. Quick-release and quick-fitting are also provided, together with adjustment of the hardness of the release mechanism.
