Abstract

This toe-fitting for safety ski binding is of the type intended for operating in conjunction with a boot supporting device and includes a boot supporting plate movable across the ski and adapted, during its movement, to cause through a cam mechanism the translation along the ski axis of a slide controlling the release spring in order to reduce the resistance thereof to the ski boot release movement, the release threshold being thus kept to a substantially constant value notwithstanding the presence of dirt, mud or other unevennesses on the bottom surface of the boot sole.
