Abstract
An alpine ski includes a board for gliding which has a zone for attaching a ski boot binding assembly on its upper face, which assembly includes a toe stop and a heel binding. A thickness of the board at a front portion of the zone is greater than a thickness of the board at a rear portion of the zone so that the front portion is elevated with respect to the rear portion. A rigid plate, located on the board in the zone, has a front part for attaching the toe stop and a rear part for attaching the heel binding. The front part of the rigid plate is rigidly secured to the front portion of the zone. The rear part of the rigid plate overlies the rear portion of the zone and is separated from the upper face of the rear portion by a gap for permitting relative movement between the board and the rear part of the rigid plate.
