A ski brake comprises two wings which swing to extend laterally from the ski when the latter becomes detached from the ski boot. The wings can swing about a respective pivot on a lever which is itself pivotally connected to a base plate secured to the ski. Confronting extensions of the brake wings each carry a hinge pin and the hinge pins are interconnected by a spring-biassed rod or by the flanged ends of a bending spring. The base plate also pivotally supports a pedal which is articulated to the lever and depressible by the ski boot to retract the brake wings.
