Abstract: A snowboard binding comprising a flat base which is provided with elements for fixing to a shoe and is centrally provided with a circular opening which is shaped complementarily to a plate for fixing to the snowboard so that the base can be rotated adjustably about the plate. The base has, around the opening, notches for engaging the plate in preset angular positions, the base further comprising, adjacent to at least one of its lateral edges, two arms which protrude from the base and converge in a region where the arms are mutually opposite and rigidly coupled to elements for adjusting the mutual distance between the arms.

Abstract: A fixture for positioning pedal anchoring cleats on soles of cycling shoes comprising a support with at least two portions, a corresponding resting element being adjustably associated with each portion and having at least two pins for the self-centering support of the edge of an end of a corresponding shoe, the other end being supported by an opposite support. A corresponding element, simulating a bicycle pedal, is fixed to a support between the portions so as to correspond, during operation, to the region for the normal anchoring of the sole to the pedal. Means for simulating the bulk of the corresponding pedal crank of the bicycle are also provided.
