Abstract
A ski brake including two wire-braking arms supported in bearing points on a ski, which wire-braking arms are, if necessary, combined to one wire bar. The ski brake can be swung from a braking position into a ready position, in which the ski brake is stepped down upon by a ski boot and is held down with the help of an operating pedal arranged pivotally about a transversely extending axle, with the free ends of the wire-braking arms being held lying above the plane of the upper side of the ski. The bearing points of the wire-braking arms are arranged on the upper side of the ski. At least one further bearing point for the operating pedal is constructed on or in a spring board spaced above the upper side of the ski and movable relative to the ski. It is furthermore important that the wire-braking arms have an operating member, and that the operating member is coupled with the operating pedal by a device permitting unhindered movability of the spring board in direction normally with respect to the upper side of the ski.
