To arrest backward sliding of a cross-country ski on an inclined surface, a device is attached to the cross-country ski. The device includes a mounting block mounted on the top surface of the ski such that a first side of the mounting block is adjacent an edge of the ski. A flipper member is pivotally connected to the first side of the mounting block such that, in a vertical position of the flipper member, the flipper member overlies the one edge of the ski. The flipper member includes a first wall substantially parallel with the one edge of the ski, and a second wall substantially perpendicular to the first wall. Thus, sliding of the ski is arrested both in the direction along the longitudinal axis of the ski and in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis.
