Abstract
A ski brake assembly mountable on a ski for impeding movement of the ski down a slope when the ski is detached from a skier's boot, the ski having a longitudinal axis, a top surface and a bottom surface. A pedal is operably attached to a pivot shaft, and is movable between a skiing position wherein the ski brake is in the non-braking position and a release position wherein the braking arm is in the braking position. The pedal and pivot shaft are operable to rotate the braking arm toward the axis of the ski as the pedal is moved toward the skiing position by the engagement of surfaces on the pedal and the pivot shaft, to rotate the pivot shaft about part of the pedal.
