Abstract

A ski boot jack has a base that is fixed in a solid position and has an adjustable cradle 2 to hold the front peg of the ski boot and a releasable clamp to hold the rear peg of the ski boot. In use the front ski boot peg is placed into a cradle 2 and the heel of the boot is pushed down onto the spring loaded releasable clamp 4. As the heel of the boot is pushed downwards the clamp 4 moves backwards until the peg of the boot passes beneath the clamp 4, the clamp then springs forward thereby securing the ski boot in the jack. The skier may now move their leg back and forth to open the ski boot. To remove the ski boot the spring loaded clamp 4 is released by moving a manual lever 5 that is connected to the clamp. The cradle is adjustable to allow various boot sizes to be held by the jack.
