ABSTRACT:
A ski binding apparatus and method for facilitating the mounting of a ski binding onto a ski. The ski binding apparatus of the invention includes a body which carries a jaw for retention of a ski boot and a base affixed to the lower portion of the body. The base has holes for receiving screws for mounting the binding to the ski. Further, the base has a lower surface, a frontal surface, and a longitudinal groove formed in the lower surface. The longitudinal groove extends to and opens into the lower surface and the frontal surface of the base. A retention element is slidably received within the groove and extends therefrom in a transport and preassembly position of the binding apparatus. A fastener is held in the retention element in the extended position such that, when the binding is mounted upon the ski, the fastener secures the retention element to the ski, after which the binding is slid forwardly, receiving the retention element within the groove and, thereafter, additional fasteners complete the attachment of the binding to the ski.
