ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a snowboard binding having two retaining brackets (6, 106) which are pivotably mounted on a base plate (2) or on parts (5, 105) displaceable longitudinally on the base plate (2), and which, when the binding is performing a retaining function, engage over the front and the rear sole borders of a boot (102), the binding being closed automatically when the boot (102) is inserted. The aim of the invention is to keep the friction between the boot (102) and the binding, and therefore the boot-insertion force to be applied, relatively low and, by means of an advantageous configuration of a locking system (10), to ensure a high securing force. This is achieved according to the invention in that an actuating element (11) is acted upon by a step-on element (7) which can be pivoted on a basic body (5) about a second axis (19), and in that a locking slide (8) is arranged in the base member (5), which locking body bears on the actuating element (11) and, after overcoming a dead center position, latches the actuating element (11).
