Abstract
The invention describes a pivotable binding system (1) for mounting between a sports device (2) and a tread surface (5) for a user'"'"'s foot, in which the tread surface (5) is pivotable about an axis extending more or less parallel with the ankle joint of the foot and is displaceable, at least in a part region assigned to the toes, to a position closer to the sports device (2), and can be joined to the sports device by at least one binding element (11). The binding element (11) is flexible and is resiliently deformable in a vertical plane (8).

- 30. Pivotable binding system (1) for mounting between a sports device (2) and a tread surface (5) for a user'"'"'s foot, in which the tread surface (5) is pivotable about an axis extending almost parallel with the ankle joint of the foot and is displaceable, in at least one part region co-operating with the ball of the foot, to a position closer to the sports device (2), and having a binding element (11) that is flexible and resiliently deformable in a vertical plant (8), by means of which the tread surface (5) can be movably joined to the sports device (2), characterised in that a lateral guide device (30) is provided in order to prevent displacements in a direction perpendicular to the vertical plane (8) and twisting movements about an axis extending in a vertical direction between the tread surface (5) and the sports device (2).
