Abstract
A safety arrangement for a ski comprising a binding having a plate and a brake in the form of a spade pivoted on the ski and normally biased by a resilient member into an active position in which the spade projects below the sole of the ski. The spade may be retracted into an inactive position against the action of the resilient member. The spade is movable into the inactive position when the plate is fitted on the ski and a skier's boot is retained in position on the plate.
