Brake arrangement for a touring binding

A brake arrangement for a touring binding, wherein the brake arrangement is adjustable between a braking position and a sliding position, the brake arrangement comprising:

• a base having a fastening arrangement for fastening to one or more of a ski or the touring binding;
• a pedal comprising a step surface for a shoe on a side of the pedal facing away from the ski;
• at least one brake arm mounted on the base and on the pedal;
• at least one first resilient element to preload the brake arrangement into the braking position;
• a locking element, wherein the locking element is adjustable between an active position and a passive position and, when in the active position, locks the brake arrangement in the sliding position, wherein the locking element is linearly displaceable along a longitudinal direction of the ski for adjustment between the active position and the passive position;
• and
• an actuating element including a first contour, wherein the actuating element is adjustable between a locking position and a release position, wherein the actuating element is mounted on the brake arrangement, so as to pivot about a pivot axis and, wherein:
• when the actuating element is set into the locking position, the locking element is set into the active position, and
• when the actuating element is set in the release position, the locking element is set into the passive position and is held in the passive position by the first contour, and
• a pivoting movement of the actuating element about the pivot axis causes a linear movement of the locking element in the longitudinal direction of the ski.
