Abstract
The assembly consists of a boot whose sole (42) is fitted with a transverse bar (38) which engages between a bearing piece (11) and a self-locking cam (29). The bearing piece (11) is secured to a sliding piece (10) and the cam (29) is mounted on a piece (19) which preferably slides. These two pieces are mounted in a rail (2, 3) while being drawn toward one another by springs (16). The bar (38) can be disengaged by means of a lever (32). This binding releases both in the event of falling forward or backward and in response to twisting.
