ABSTRACT:
A ski brake construction utilizing a spring wire bent into a desired configuration so that the entirety thereof lies in a common plane. The spring has a portion which is bent generally into a U-shape with an intermediate bight portion interconnecting the legs of the U being received in an elongated and inclined slot in a holding plate device mounted on the upper surface of a ski. The intermediate bight portion has a general configuration to hold it in the aforementioned common plane even though the braking members are moved out of the common plane. As a result, a torsional force is developed in the spring, which torsional force effects an erecting of the brake after the ski boot is released from engagement with the ski bindings.
