  • Ski braking device
    Patent number: 4234207
    Abstract: A braking device for a ski having two blades arranged in the shape of an inverted V resiliently hinged to a plate mounted on the rear end of a ski, the blades are adapted to pivot downwardly and dig into the snow when the ski tends to slide rearwardly. The blade closest to the rear end of the ski is narrower than the other so that it digs into the snow readily and the wider blade provides the necessary braking force.
