Abstract
A bearing plate for a front binding, equipped with a member (8) for retaining the boot via a part of the sole (10) resting on the bearing plate (1), this bearing plate being compressible so as to adapt to the variations in thickness of the sole. The bearing plate forms a nonlinear system comprising an elastic body (12) which is precompressed on a rigid base (11) and opposes the deformation of the elastic body beyond a certain degree of deformation, so as to form a nonlinear system.
