A ski having a core that includes a left lateral edge, a right lateral edge, and at least one central inner core positioned between the two lateral edges. The core also includes a plurality of left wings arranged between at least one central inner core and the left lateral edge, each left wing forming an angle between 5° and 85° or between 95° and 175° with the longitudinal axis X, and a plurality of right wings arranged between at least one central inner core and the right lateral edge, each right wing forming an angle between 5° and 85° or between 95° and 175° with the longitudinal axis X.

Ski core and ski including such a core

An article of footwear including an outer sole assembly, the outer sole assembly extending lengthwise from a rear end to a front end, widthwise between a lateral side and a medial side, and heightwise between a free surface and a connection surface, the outer sole assembly including a core made of a first material. The core of the outer sole assembly includes a plate that demarcates the connection surface, as well as at least one boss that projects from the plate towards the free surface. The outer sole assembly includes an outer layer made of a second material, the outer layer at least partially demarcating the free surface, the outer layer at least partially covering the plate and at least partially covering a boss.

A binding device for a ski or other sports apparatus. The ski or sports apparatus provides an upper service adapted to receive a binding device for retaining a boot, the binding device including an anchoring mechanism to anchor the binding device to the ski, the anchoring mechanism including a slide and at least one tightening mechanism which enables the binding device to be forced in place against the upper surface of the ski or sports apparatus.

Cross-country ski assembly and cross-country ski binding

A safety binding device for retaining a boot on a gliding board including: a module for detecting the forces to which the boot is subjected, the detection module generating an analog signal proportional to the forces; a decision module integrating a mechanism to convert the analog signal into digital information, and a mechanism to process the digital information according to a release-controlling algorithm depending upon the time and parameters determined by the user's characteristics and/or snow conditions and/or type of sports practice, the processing mechanism generating a control signal; and further including a mechanical actuation module controlled by the control signal and allowing the boot to be released.

Safety binding

An assembly for binding a boot to a ski, including a front retaining element that is releasable when the forces to which the front retaining element is subjected are greater than the prestress value of a first spring, a rear retaining element that is releasable when the forces to which the rear retaining element is subjected are greater than the prestress value of a second spring, the rear retaining element being mounted on a slide, and an electronically controllable additional release device. The additional release device includes a rotatable actuation mechanism, in the form of an electric motor. The additional release device includes a bar fixed to the rear retaining element or to the front retaining element, and is capable of moving longitudinally between an open position and a closed position, in reaction to the actuation of the additional release device.

Safety binding for a boot on a ski

An assembly of a ski and a device for binding a boot to the ski, the assembly including a ski having an upper surface adapted to receive the binding device. The assembly includes an anchoring device that includes a slide and a binding device that includes a base, the base bearing a mechanism for locking the boot. The mechanism includes at least one movable member controlled by a manipulable member. The anchoring device includes at least one mechanism for tightening the binding device with respect to the ski, and the tightening mechanism is implemented by moving the manipulable member its open position to its closed position.

An element for retaining a boot on a skid, the retention element including a base provided to be affixedly connected to the ski, overlaid by a body, a jaw having two independent retaining wings journalled to the body about a vertical axle, the wings having, beyond their journal axle, a tip exerting an action by pressure on the head of a movable tie rod biased by a spring. A rocker, journalled with respect to the base, is inserted between the tips and the head of the tie rod, the tips being in support against an arm of the rocker, and the rocker being mounted asymmetrically with respect to the base or the tips.

Element for retaining the front portion of a boot on a ski

The invention relates to an element for retaining a boot on a ski including a body and a retaining jaw that are generally symmetrical with respect to a longitudinal and vertical median plane, the jaw being biased by a return spring housed in the body, the return spring being connected to the jaw by an anchor having two lateral arms, a central strap and a central fork having two teeth, the spring elastically maintaining the arms of the anchor in support against two retaining pins affixed to the body, the jaw having a median pin engaged between the two teeth of the fork. At least one of the elements of the anchor, which are the arms, the strap and the fork, is asymmetrical with respect to the longitudinal and vertical median plane defined by the body and the jaw.
