A safety ski binding for a ski, comprising a release plate having a lengthwise axis, means for connecting the release plate with the ski boot of the skier and means for releasably fixing the release plate to the ski. There is further provided a force-transmitting element and means mounting the lower end portion of such force-transmitting element on said release plate for pivotal movement about an axis extending substantially transversely with respect to the lengthwise axis of said release plate. Means cooperate with the force transmitting element to limit the pivotal movement thereof, so that forces acting upon the skier's leg are not transmitted through the ankle joint, but via the now locked force-transmitting element directly to the release plate.
