ABSTRACT:
An improved ski binding reduces the risk of knee injuries. The binding measures the angle of the knee flex of the skier with a sensor and used this measurement in making the retention/release decision. When the skier is in a position susceptible to knee injury, the release of the ski boot from the ski is caused or facilitated.
