<p>A safety ski binding which can releasably hold a ski boot on a ski includes a release mechanism having a slide member which operatively engages the ski boot when it is held in the binding and moves from an initial position in a first direction in response to movement of the ski boot during a release thereof. A coupling mechanically couples the resilient arrangement to the slide member, the resilient arrangement biasing the slide member in a second direction opposite the first direction. The coupling automatically interrupts the coupling of the resilient arrangement and the slide member when the slide member has moved a first distance from its initial position in the first direction. A pickup responsive to movement of the slide member sends signals to a circuit which, when the slide member has moved a second distance less than the first predetermined distance from its initial position, actuates an arrangement which causes the coupling to interrupt the coupling of the slide member and resilient engagement.</p> |
