ABSTRACT:
An automatic brake for a ski comprises a resiliently deformable wire of generally U shape and having a pair of pivot portions which extend parallel to the upper face of the ski and at an acute angle to the longitudinal axis of the ski. These portions are pivoted in a support plate and actuation portions extending back from the pivot portions allow the wire to be deformed and flattened out in a planar manner on top of the ski. Brake elements are carried on this wire so that when it is stepped on and flattened out these brake elements lie on top of the ski out of the way, but when a skiboot is taken off the wire they spring down and project beyond the lower face of the ski so as to prevent it from sliding.
