Abstract
The invention relates to a safety ski binding toe mechanism comprising a skid plate underlying the forward end of the ski boot sole. According to the invention, the skid plate, or the pivotable and longitudinally shiftable sole retainer, respectively, is provided with keying means preventing the skid plate from twisting relative to the ski boot sole at least within the elastic yield limits of the toe mechanism. The keying means may comprise a pair of guide jaws receiving the ski boot sole therebetween, or may be constituted by stop portions or projections on the upper surface of the skid plate cooperating with complementary counter stops or engagement means of the ski boot sole.
