Abstract
The ski binding comprises a toe unit (5) and a heel unit (7) which is connected thereto as a unitary assembly. The assembly is guided slidably lengthwise of the ski in a mounting (3) attached to the ski. By means of a latching arrangement, the assembly is latchable in several slide positions. The mounting has at least one insertion aperture for the point of a ski pole (17). One of the units (7) carries spaced above the insertion aperture two bearing surfaces (11) for the ski pole (17) facing each other lengthwise of the ski, which permit a tilting movement of the ski pole (17) whose point has been inserted into the insertion aperture about an axis transverse to the lengthwise direction of the ski. The ski pole (17) serves as a lever which acts to displace the binding lengthwise of the ski without having to separate the ski (1) from the boot. The latching arrangement can be unlocked by a manual actuating device or by the ski pole (17).
