"Alpine and Touring Ski-Bindings: Test Soles for Ski-Binding Tests" is the title of the BS ISO 9838:2019 standard. The specifications for test soles used in the testing of ski bindings for alpine skiing and touring skiing are outlined in this standard. Both Form A, which represents an alpine ski boot, and Form T, which represents a touring ski boot, are available as test soles.

This standard's goal is to guarantee that test soles correctly mimic the properties of ski boots so that laboratory measurements are accurate and repeatable. It is significant to remember that ski boots have their own international standards that permit wider tolerances appropriate for use on slopes. These tolerances, however, are too great for accurate laboratory testing.
