ABSTRACT:
A heel ski boot binding for mounting onto a conventional snow ski is adapted to receive and releasibly maintain the heel of a conventional ski boot during normal skiing operations and to release the boot heel upon application of a predetermined vertical, lateral or torque force through the heel against the heel binding. The heel binding incorporates a biased clamp member that is compressed into a locked attitude against a top edge of the ski boot heel but can be released upon application of a predetermined vertical or torque force. The heel binding also incorporates one or more adjustable biased roller members adapted to be urged against the ski boot heel to secure the heel in position against the ski. The roller members release the ski boot when a predetermined lateral or rotational force is applied through the boot heel to the roller members. The biasing means of the roller members and clamp members are manually adjustable to set the amount of force necessary to overcome the bias and release the ski boot.
