A ski safety binding is provided with a measuring system for determining the occurrence of a dangerous bending moment about a transverse axis 11 passing through the weakest point of the skier's leg lying generally somewhat above the ankle. In a first embodiment first, second and third measuring transducers 14, 15, 12 are strategically arranged between the sole of the ski boot and parts of a binding 33, 35 and the output signals from these measuring transducers are fed to a processing circuit 17 which computes the size of the bending moment about the transverse axis 11 and passes a release signal to an actuation device A to release the binding as soon as a dangerous level is reached. In a modification (FIG. 3) the ski boot is supported in the binding in such a manner that only two pressure measuring transducers are required. A variety of other embodiments are disclosed which show the use of ski bindings incorporating sole plates 24 (FIGS. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12) and various other arrangements of measuring transducers and processing circuits which enable the binding to be released both during forward and rearward falls and also on the occurrence of torsional loads.
