An arrangement for longitudinal adjustment of two binding jaws of a ski binding has base parts which are guided for longitudinal displacement on guide elements attached to the ski. Strip-shaped or similar connecting elements extend parallel to one another in the direction of the other binding jaw. A fixing device interacts with the connecting elements. Raised portions of the connecting elements can be brought into and out of engagement with raised portions of the fixing device upon actuation of the fixing device by a relative movement parallel to the upper side of the ski. If the arrangement is blocked with ice or snow, functioning is ensured because the raised portions which can be brought into and out of engagement with one another are oriented essentially vertically in relation to the upper side of the ski.

Arrangement for longitudinal adjustment of two binding jaws of a ski binding

A binding in particular a step-in binding, for retaining a soft boot on a sliding device, in particular a snowboard, having retaining elements for the boot and having a calf support ( ) which can be pivoted into snowboarding and step-in positions and, via a tread element ( ) which is connected to it and is within reach of the boot, can be moved into the snowboarding position, in which the calf support ( ) is secured against accidentally pivoting out of the snowboarding position. In the snowboarding position, with the tread element ( ) subjected to loading, the calf support ( ) can be supported, on binding-mounted supporting parts ( ), against pivoting on its pivoting bolt ( ) into the step-in position. As a result of the tread element ( ) being relieved of loading, in order to eliminate the support, the calf support ( ) can be displaced, in particular automatically, in relation to the bolt ( ).
