Abstract: The present invention provides a front unit (100; 200) of a sliding board binding, comprising: a holding device which is set up so as to engage a sliding board boot (20) and to hold it on the sliding board binding (10) pivotably about a transverse axis extending transverse to a sliding board longitudinal axis, the front unit (100; 200) being adjustable between a closed position, in which the holding device is raised in a configuration ready for operation so as to hold a sliding board boot (20) pivotably engaged, and an open position, in which the holding device releases the sliding board boot (20), the front unit (100; 200) being adjustable into a passive position, which is different from the open position and the closed position and in which the holding device is adjusted towards the sliding board (12) into a flat configuration.

Abstract: The present invention provides a front unit (10) for a sliding board binding, comprising first engagement means of a first binding system (12) for fixing a front sole portion of a sliding board boot in a downhill position and second engagement means of a second binding system (14), the second engagement means having separate bearing means (34L, 34R) from the first engagement means, for pivotably mounting a sliding board boot about an axis (Q) extending transverse to the longitudinal axis (L) of the sliding board.

Abstract: The invention provides a ski boot (12) which comprises an opening (18a, 18b) in each of opposing lateral, front boot portions, the openings (18a, 18b) defining an opening axis (Q) along which bearing bolts (32a, 32b) of a ski binding (14) may be introduced into the openings (18a, 18b), in order to hold the ski boot (12) on the ski binding (14) such that it can pivot about the opening axis (Q), at least one of the openings (18a, 18b) comprising at least one inner bearing portion (42) for bearing against an outer circumferential portion (50) of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b), the bearing portion (42) allowing displacement of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b) in the direction of the opening axis (Q) and a pivoting movement of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b) about the opening axis (Q), but substantially preventing displacement or a pivoting movement of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b) in other directions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a front unit (10) for a sliding board binding, comprising two engagement elements (32L, 32R), which comprise engagement portions (16L, 16R) which are set up so as to engage opposite lateral portions (14L, 14R) of a sliding board boot (12), the engagement elements (32L, 32R) being held pivotably on the front unit (10), and a tensioning means (34), which produces a resilient force for biasing the engagement portions (16L, 16R) in the engagement direction, the tensioning means (34) comprising a displaceably held tensioning element (40), the conversion between the pivoting movements of the engagement elements (32L, 32R) and the displacement movement of the tensioning element (40) being provided by way of a lever mechanism, which comprises: two levers which pivot in a manner corresponding to the engagement elements (32L, 32R), a displacement portion which is displaced in a manner corresponding to the tensioning element (40), and an articulation element (48), which comprises a first

Abstract: The invention provides a ski boot (12) which comprises an opening (18a, 18b) in each of opposing lateral, front boot portions, the openings (18a, 18b) defining an opening axis (Q) along which bearing bolts (32a, 32b) of a ski binding (14) may be introduced into the openings (18a, 18b), in order to hold the ski boot (12) on the ski binding (14) such that it can pivot about the opening axis (Q), at least one of the openings (18a, 18b) comprising at least one inner bearing portion (42) for bearing against an outer circumferential portion (50) of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b), the bearing portion (42) allowing displacement of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b) in the direction of the opening axis (Q) and a pivoting movement of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b) about the opening axis (Q), but substantially preventing displacement or a pivoting movement of the bearing bolt (32a, 32b) in other directions.

Abstract: A gliding board, in particular a snowboard, which is formed by two skis and a central part connected by fittings, has a clamping device in the central region. The skis can be clamped against one another by the clamping device accompanied by deformation in the transverse direction so that the gliding board can be adjusted to a desired sidecut radius.
