Abstract: The device for connecting a ski (5) to a boot (4) of a person using the ski, the device permitting adjustment of the curvature of the ski to facilitate turning while skiing. The device (1) has intermediate parts (2, 3) arranged between the binding device (1) and the ski (5) that are secured to the ski. The base body (10) of the device (1) and the base body (20; 30) of the respective intermediate parts (2, 3) have a base plate (10; 23) with projecting strip-like members. These members (11, 12) are associated with the intermediate parts (2, 3) and have a series (15, 25, 35) of openings (14, 24, 34) corresponding to openings in the intermediate parts. The series of openings run parallel to the base plate (23). Connecting means (50) are provided that run through the openings of the members and intermediate parts that create a pivoting link between the members and the intermediate parts.

Abstract: A transmission device (100) for a snowboard comprises a longitudinal base plate (101) to which is fitted a binding (11, 12) for a boot (6) and two spacers (131, 132) allocated to the base plate (101) and the snowboard body (1). The spacers (131, 132) are fitted in the central longitudinal region of the base plate (101) and are themselves a distance (F) apart. The base plate (101) has downwardly directed and longitudinally running ribs (105). The spacers (131 and 132) have a U-shaped cross-section with a base (133) and arms (134, 135). The base plate (101) lies on the base (133) and between the arms (134, 135) of the spacer. The base plate (101) and the spacers (131, 132) are secured to the snowboard body (1) by screws (141, 142).
