ABSTRACT:
A snow removal device for use in conjunction with a runner of a ski assembly, which comprises a pedestal and a plurality of upright bristles. The pedestal is secured fixedly to the runner, while the bristles are affixed to the pedestal. In this manner, the pedestal at an inclined forward angle to the ski provides the necessary height to the bristles and the bristles provide maximum digging action to remove snow and ice while maintaining a smooth and easy motion of the boot. The bristles are fabricated of the proper designs and material to prevent filling with snow and ice and thereby avoid freezing solid or breaking during use. The pedestal is arranged in a transverse manner to the runner at a predetermined distance forward of the toe piece of the binding mechanism. Alternatively, the pedestal may be formed integral with the toe piece base plate or may be incorporated into a base plate onto which the top piece mounts. In this way, the removal snow is deposited away from the binding.
