ABSTRACT:
Ski brake comprising a bail rotatably mounted about a fixed transverse axis on a ski having two brake arms extending alongside the ski on one side of the axis and a pedal on the other side of the axis, a flexural spring fastened to the pedal which extends to a supporting surface on top of the ski in all rotational positions of the bail. The spring is resiliently biased relative to the pedal such that in the absence of a ski boot on the pedal the spring rotates the bail into a braking position wherein the brake arms project below the ski. When a ski boot is placed on the pedal the bail is rotated against the bias of the spring into an inactive position wherein the brake arms are located in the plane of or above the ski. A roller can be provided at the end of the spring to roll on the supporting surface and/or the supporting surface can be provided with friction reducing properties.
