abstract="Two different types of NATO ski bindings were compared during military-nordic ski training of a Marine Corps infantry battalion of 534 men, who sustained 26 injuries (3.75 injuries per 1,000 skier days). Twelve injuries occurred with the 224 subjects using the NATO 100 bindings. Fourteen injuries occurred with the 310 subjects using the NATO 120 bindings. A total of 133 days were lost from training in the NATO 100 cohort and 121 days from training in the NATO 120 cohort, a statistically significant difference. It is concluded that the NATO 120 binding is safer.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
