abstract="In summary, it can be stated that the optimal binding setting for either the inadvertent release criterion or for the fracture criterion is a function of the binding characteristics. This study suggests that such binding characteristics should be a factor incorporated in recommended binding setting tables for the recreational skier. Bindings with large motions (large energy absorption capabilities) are most likely to meet both the fracture and inadvertent release criteria. Bindings with large motions are more likely to cause fracture if friction exists. This study emphasizes the necessity for reducing binding friction to an absolute minimum. Frictional resistance seriously compromises the performance of contemporary bindings.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
