Abstract
A cross country ski binding includes a support element which has a rear part clampingly engageable with a forward extension of a ski boot sole and a front part which is fixedly attachable to a ski. In order to accommodate angular movement between the front and rear parts, a connecting part is provided which permits such angular movement about a cross axis extending crosswise of the longitudinal extent of the ski when the binding is in an in-use position. The cross axis may be formed by hinge pin connections between the front and rear parts or by portions of a leaf spring or a multiplicity of leaf springs interconnecting the front and rear parts. Resilient members such as springs, rubber cushions, and the like, are interposed between the front and rear parts to continuously resiliently bias the same in the direction corresponding to a flat position of the ski boot on the ski.
