Abstract
Cross-country ski bindings (51) for cross-country ski boots (54) having a forwardly extended front sole end (55) formed as a downwardly directed hook, with a transverse member (58) which is provided for co-operating with the sole end (55) and which is mounted in side jaws (57) which extend upwardly from a base plate (56) which is to be fixedly mounted to the ski. In order to maintain the front end (55) of the sole in place with respect to the transverse member (58), the arrangement has the web portion (59) of a U-shaped stirrup member (59, 60), the limb portions (60) of which are mounted at their free ends on the transverse member (58). The U-shaped member (59, 60) is subjected to the force of a spring (62) which urges it in the direction of clamping the front end (55) of the sole in place. The boot (54) is pivotable about the transverse member (58) against the resistance of the spring (62 ).
