Abstract
An abutment for binding a boot on a ski. The abutment includes a support affixed to the ski on which is moveably mounted a jaw for retaining the front of the boot. An elastic device is provided for normally maintaining the jaw on its support in a central engaged position. Furthermore, a linkage device is provided between the jaw and its support for frontwardly displacing an upper portion of the jaw and rearwardly displacing a lower portion of the jaw, during movement of the jaw in a lateral direction, which is substantially transverse to the ski in all lateral released positions, so as to simultaneously cause a progressive upward opening of the jaw.
