ABSTRACT:
A binding apparatus for affixing a cross-country ski shoe to a ski, for a shoe having at a front end a transverse hinge pin, and a bearing insert for the hinge pin. The apparatus includes a bearing housing having an inner surface and an opening positioned upwardly with respect to the ski for receiving the hinge pin. A member is provided which is movable from a retracted position to a position above the opening of the housing for retaining the hinge pin within the housing, and an insert affixed to the housing inner surface for increasing the area of the housing inner surface against which forces from the hinge pin are transmitted during skiing. Particular forms of the insert are provided and the insert includes shapes which particularly adapt the insert for being embedded within the housing.
