A ski binding for releasably securing a boot to a ski. The boot includes a pivotable plate adapted to be pivotably secured to the ski whereby the plate is pivotable on the ski around an axis substantially perpendicular relative to the upper surface of the ski. The plate pivots to an unaligned position relative to the binding during release of the boot. First and second assemblies are provided for securing the front and rear of the boot onto the ski. The second assembly is mounted on the plate. The first assembly is elastically pivotable to allow for release of the boot with pivoting of the first assembly, and is operatively associated with the plate whereby realignment of the first assembly relative to the binding is accompanied by automatic realignment of the plate.

The second hold down is mounted on the plate. The first hold down is elastically pivotable to allow for release of the boot with pivoting of the first hold down, and is operatively associated with the plate whereby realignment of the first hold down relative to the binding is accompanied by automatic realignment of the plate.
