Abstract

An interface apparatus between a boot and a ski, to modify the natural distribution of the ski on the snow. The apparatus comprises a first base and a second base affixed to the ski, a first moveable sensor provided to support one end of the sole of the boot and to sense the variations in support force exerted by the boot, and a second moveable sensor adapted to support the second end of the boot and to sense the variations in support force of this end, and linkage extending between the two sensors and the bases, so as to transmit to said bases the variations in support forces sensed by each of the sensors.
