Abstract
A ski binding having a retaining device which secures a skier's boot to a ski. The retaining device releases the boot when the lateral, longitudinal, and/or upward forces acting between the ski and the boot reach a predetermined level. The retaining device includes means which function to generate a force which is equal to and opposite to the force generated by the acceleration of the boot mass in the lateral and/or vertical directions so as to cancel out the internal forces resulting from such accelerations and thereby eliminate the premature release of the ski bindings.
