Abstract

A snowboard binding having a heel element that is pivotable in its open position sufficiently far that a snowboard boot can be inserted into the binding with the instep element held in place. The heel element is also pivotable into a closure position and held there by means of actuation devices. In this closure position, the heel element supports the heel of the snowboard boot in a predefined position and simultaneously presses the boot against the instep element.
