Rear holding element for a ski boot comprising a heel grip (11), a lever (6) and a fitting pedal (7), characterized in that the fitting pedal (7) is mobile relative to the heel grip (11).

A heel unit for an alpine touring binding, comprising a binding body which is suitable for holding a heel portion of an alpine touring shoe in a downhill position of the heel unit and for releasing the heel portion of the alpine touring shoe in an alpine touring position of the heel unit, such that the alpine touring shoe can lift off the heel unit, and a climbing aid which is adjustable between an active position and a passive position, wherein, while in the active position, the climbing aid supports the heel portion of the alpine touring shoe at a predetermined height above a sliding board plane in the alpine touring position of the heel unit, wherein the climbing aid is biased over the entire path of movement thereof into the active position by means of a flexible element and can be locked in the passive position.

A fastening assembly for a ski crampon includes a hinge pin having a mounting portion and a securing portion. The mounting portion has a smaller dimension in a first direction and a larger dimension in a second direction, the first and second directions orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the hinge pin. The securing portion has substantially the same dimension in the first and second directions. A mounting fastening portion defines a gap and an opening. The gap and the opening each extends substantially transversely to a ski longitudinal direction and substantially parallel to the ski surface. The gap receives the mounting portion of the hinge pin, which is inserted through the opening. The dimension of the opening in the ski longitudinal direction is larger than the dimension of the mounting portion in the first direction and smaller than the dimension of the mounting portion in the second direction.

A brake device for a sliding board, including: a base for connecting the brake device to the sliding board; and a brake, including: at least one brake paddle; a latching element which can be moved back and forth between a first position in which the brake paddle can be released in order to slow the sliding board and a second position in which the brake paddle can be fixed in a non-braking position; and a pedal which includes a bearing area for a boot and a functional element which can be moved relative to the bearing area, wherein moving the functional element releases the latching element to be moved from the first position to the second position.

A front jaw for a touring ski binding, includes a base and at least one recess or transit opening in the base. Lateral sole retainers lie opposite each other in relation to a longitudinal axis of the front jaw each include a boot retainer pin and, in a pivoted-in state, co-operate with bearings formed on a ski boot, defining a pivoting axis for the boot extending substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the front jaw, and are adjustable between the pivoted-in state, where the bearings of the boot engage the boot retainer pins, and a pivoted-away state where the bearings of the boot are not engaged with the boot retainer pins; spring elements for tensioning the lateral sole retainers; a tensioning lever for moving the sole retainers from the pivoted-in state to the pivoted-away state to release the ski boot from a downhill skiing position or a walking position.

A binding for skis and/or splitboard and/or roller skis and/or snowshoes permitting free lifting of the heel, which permits to lift the front part of the foot. The object of the present solution is also and adapter for standard bindings, a method of binding shoes for skis and/or splitboard and/or roller skis and/or snowshoes, and also a shoe for riding skis and/or splitboard and/or roller skis intended for use in bindings permitting free lifting of the heel.

A toe-piece of a ski binding has a base fixable to a ski, a first jaw, a second jaw, a first pin on the first jaw for inserting in a first lateral hole a ski boot tip, and a second pin on the second jaw for inserting in a second lateral hole opposite the first lateral hole in the ski boot tip. The toe-piece also has a first guide and a second guide on the base, each with a portion extending away from a longitudinal axis of the ski and another second portion extending towards the front of the ski. Two sliding elements on the first jaw engage slidably along the first guide and two sliding elements on the second jaw engage slidably along the second guide.

The invention relates to a ski binding including a front jaw and a rear jaw for holding the sole of a ski boot. The front jaw includes a base, via which the front jaw can be connected to a ski, a first holding device for connecting the boot to the ski at the front end of the boot for ascending, and a second holding device for connecting the ski boot to the ski at the front end of the boot for descending. The second holding device exhibits a first configuration for descending, in which the second holding device is in contact with the front end of the sole of the ski boot, and a second configuration for ascending, in which the second holding device is out of contact with the front end of the sole of the ski boot.

A movement assistance device comprising a first element for rigidly connecting the device to one foot of a user and transmitting a thrust force to said foot; and a second element linked to the first element by link means and intended to be in contact with the ground; the device further comprises means for transmitting a force from an exogenous energy source, to the first element and/or to the second element, in order to separate them from each other.

A telemark ski binding has a toe retainer pivotally coupled to a base. A lock assembly of the binding has an actuator assembly. The lock assembly is adjustable between a locked configuration and an unlocked configuration. The binding further has a heel retainer rotatably coupled to the toe retainer. When the lock assembly is in the unlocked configuration, the toe retainer is unlocked, and the toe retainer and heel retainer are both rotatable together substantially inline, relative to the base, around a first center point. When the lock assembly is in the locked configuration, the toe retainer is locked, and the toe retainer is restrained from rotating relative to the base. The heal retainer is rotatable relative to the toe retainer around a second center point. The second center point is at a different location from said first center point.
