ABSTRACT:
A pair of front and rear abutment members are supported in longitudinally spaced position upon the mid-portion of a ski for vertical and lateral shifting relative to the ski and the abutment members include downwardly facing partial spherical seating surfaces abutted against upwardly facing seating surfaces on the ski. Coiled spring structure is enclosed within each abutment member and connected between the latter and the ski for yieldingly biasing the abutment members into tight seated engagement with the upwardly facing seating surfaces carried by the ski. A ski boot is provided and includes extending opposite heel and toe sole portions having upwardly and outwardly opening V-shaped notches formed therein and the ski boot is snugly received between the abutment members with the adjacent portions of the partial spherical surfaces of the abutment members seated in the upwardly and outwardly opening V-shaped notches in the extended toe and heel portions of the ski boot sole. In this manner the ski boot is clamped in position on the ski and yet may be disengaged from the latter as a result of sufficient pressure being exerted on one or both of the abutment members by the boot to cause displacement of either one or both of the abutment members from its seated position.
