ABSTRACT:
A ski brake has an operating pedal pivotally connected to a wire braking bar with two braking mandrels. The pedal is pivotal about a first ski fixed axle and the bar is pivotal about a second axle which is parallel to the first axle and supported for movement relative to the pedal in directions substantially parallel to the longitudinally axis of the ski. An upwardly projecting path extender which is disposed in the path of movement of the second axle raises the second axle and the braking mandrels to positions spaced above the surface of the ski, and then lowers the second axle to a position adjacent the surface of the ski as the ski brake moves between its retracted and braking positions. A mechanism is provided for pulling the braking mandrels laterally inwardly as the ski brake approaches the retracted position.
