Abstract
The present invention relates to a brake device for skis which comprises two lateral arms (1, 1') resiliently connected to each other by a spring loop (2) and each bearing as a result of this resilient action against an incline (4, 4') forming an angle with the upper surface of the ski and which has an element (6) secured to the ski. The spring loop connecting the two lateral arms serves as a lever and is adapted to be actuated by the boot to control the movement of the arms between an active position, in which they extend below the sole of the ski (7) and are outwardly directed from the latter, and an inactive position, in which they are retracted substantially parallel and above the lateral edges of the ski.
