 a heel housing, 
 a bi-direction lateral release mechanism integrated into the heel housing, 
 a vertical release mechanism integrated into the housing. 
   
     
     
         2 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the bi-directional lateral release mechanisms have an integrated spring that is adjustable. 
     
     
         3 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the vertical release mechanisms have an integrated spring that is adjustable. 
     
     
         4 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the toe housing is comprised of an upper and lower portion. 
     
     
         5 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the heel housing is comprised of an upper and lower portion. 
     
     
         6 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the bi-directional lateral release mechanism of the toe assembly has a first arm and second arm which interfaces with a side of a ski boot. 
     
     
         7 . The ski binding of  claim 6 , wherein the first and second arm are able to operate independently of one another. 
     
     
         8 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the bi-directional lateral release mechanism of the heel assembly has a first arm and second arm which interfaces with a side of a ski boot. 
     
     
         9 . The ski binding of  claim 8 , wherein the first and second arm are able to operate independently of one another. 
     
     
         10 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the bi-directional release mechanism and the vertical release mechanism of the toe housing operate independently of one another. 
     
     
         11 . The ski binding of  claim 1 , wherein the bi-directional release mechanism and the vertical release mechanism of the heel housing operate independently of one another. 
     
     
         12 . A ski binding comprising:
 a toe assembly comprised of,
 a toe housing, 
 an adjustable bi-direction lateral release mechanism integrated into the toe housing, wherein a first and second arm are attached to a spring assembly allowing independent movement of the first and second arm, 
 an adjustable vertical release mechanism integrated into the toe housing; and 
   a heel assembly comprised of,
 a heel housing, 
 an adjustable bi-direction lateral release mechanism integrated into the heel housing wherein a first and second arm are attached to a spring assembly allowing independent movement of the first and second arm, 
 an adjustable vertical release mechanism integrated into the housing. 
   
     
     
         13 . The ski binding of  claim 12 , wherein the toe housing is comprised of an upper and lower portion. 
     
     
         14 . The ski binding of  claim 13 , wherein the adjustable vertical release mechanism in the toe assembly is secured in the lower portion of the toe housing. 
     
     
         15 . The ski binding of  claim 12 , wherein the heel housing is comprised of an upper and lower portion. 
     
     
         16 . The ski binding of  claim 15 , wherein the adjustable vertical release mechanism in the heel assembly is secured in the lower portion of the heel housing. 
     
     
         17 . The ski binding of  claim 13 , wherein the adjustable bi-directional lateral release mechanisms have a first arm and second arm which interfaces with a side of a ski boot. 
     
     
         18 . The ski binding of  claim 17 , wherein the first and second arms of the adjustable bi-directional lateral release mechanisms are able to operate independently. 
     
     
         19 . The ski binding of  claim 12 , wherein the bi-directional release mechanism and the vertical release mechanism of the toe housing and heel housing operate independently of one another. 
     
     
         20 . A ski binding comprising:
 a toe assembly comprising;
 an adjustable bi-directional lateral release mechanism having a first arm and a second arm which interface with a ski boot, 
 an adjustable vertical relation mechanism which interfaces with the ski boot, 
 wherein the adjustable bi-directional lateral release mechanism and the adjustable vertical relation mechanism operate independently of one another, and 
   a heel assembly comprising;
 an adjustable bi-directional lateral release mechanism having a first arm and a second arm which interface with a ski boot, 
 an adjustable vertical relation mechanism which interfaces with the ski boot, 
 wherein the adjustable bi-directional lateral release mechanism and the adjustable vertical relation mechanism operate independently of one another.
