Abstract: A construction for a ski binding and a ski boot for coupling a ski boot (1)—at its front section to a ski (2), and allowing the lifting of the heel section of the ski boot from the ski. The ski binding has a coupling mechanism (4) for coupling the ski boot to the binding, and the ski boot has a transverse rotation axis (5) coupled to the sole of the boot and positioned perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the sole, which rotation axis can be used for coupling the ski boot, with a locking mechanism, to an axial locking (6) provided on the ski, the sole of the ski boot including a toe section (7), a ball section (8), an arched section (9) and a heel section (10). The rotation axis is coupled to the sole of the boot such that the toe section is positioned in front of the rotation axis.
