ABSTRACT:
A ski has a heel or toe clamp which is displaceable between a down position holding a skiboot on the ski and an up position freeing the skiboot from the ski. An elongated brake element is pivoted on the ski for movement between a rest position parallel to the ski and a braking position transverse to the ski and extending downwardly below the bottom surface thereof. This element carries a lateral projection which engages in a laterally open recess formed on the clamp or in a rail carried on the clamp so that as the clamp pivots into the up position it pivots the brake element into the braking position. The recess may have a laterally inclined camming surface that further swings the brake element from a position overlying the upper surface of the ski into a position spaced laterally from the ski on displacement of the element from the braking to the rest position.
