A binding block for elevating the binding on a snow ski in order to achieve increased turning leverage has a midregion wherein maximum ski flexibility is permitted. In one embodiment, the binding block is comprised of two separate elements forming a gap between them in order to provide such maximum flexibility. The binding block is constructed from a lightweight, flexible yet compressible material so as to not inhibit the natural flexibility characteristics of the ski, while at the same time performing the desirable function of absorbing or dampening ski vibration. In another embodiment of the invention, the binding block is slidably mounted on the ski so as to move relative thereto in response to the flexing of the ski, thereby enhancing the flexibility of the ski and the "feel" thereof by the skier.
