PCT No. PCT/FR92/01082 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 12, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 12, 1994 PCT Filed Nov. 23, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/15797 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 19, 1993A device for modifying the pressure distribution of a ski over its gliding surface. The ski has a base and two binding elements. It further includes a long stiffening member which extends above the base of the ski and which has opposite ends affixed to the ski by base plates. Furthermore, the device includes a calibration device to induce a compression stress in the stiffening member that can vary between two values depending upon the presence or absence of the boot. According to a preferred embodiment, the calibration device includes a toggle joint mechanism constituted by a pair of journalled levers, one of the levers bearing the braking arms for the ski. The invention also is directed to a ski brake. |
