<p>A ski binding system (10) is adaptable to both alpine and cross-country/telemark skiing modes. A base plate (34) is pivotably connected about a transverse axis to the boot (14) by an upwardly extendable transduction hinge (226), at or just to the rear of the ball (62) of a skier's foot (64), to provide torsional stability with either rigid or flexible-toed boots. The boot heel and point of connection may be freely raised from the binding. The base plate (34) is safety releasable from the ski upon exertion of excess upward or transverse forces by the skier's foot (64).</p> |
