Ski alpin : (...) chaque fixation doit offrir : une élasticité latérale (...), une élasticité verticale (...), une élasticité longitudinale (...) car ce sont là des forces auxquelles le ski sera soumis. La fixation doit également diriger le ski là où le skieur le veut bien et de préférence sa butée devrait être en mesure de recentraliser la bottine, lorsque celle-ci subit une pression vers l'extérieur ou l'intérieur. (Extrait de Ski Club, alpin, nordique, hiver 1979/1980, p. 26). 2, record 2, French, - but%C3%A9e

Au cours des dernières années, les concepteurs ont affiné la butée de la fixation de ski de fond; elle ne retient plus que la prolongation centrale de la semelle de la chaussure plutôt que de fixer toute la largeur du haut de la semelle. 2, record 2, French, - but%C3%A9e
