Actually, the asker did not post the second term in the heading, so it is really a moot point here: Kudoz questions should include only one term per question. In any event, it apperas the two terms may have been used synonymously after all.
Note that the example given above is for cross-country skis to prevent you slipping downhill backwards. The context here is downhill skiing (mentioned in other questions by asker), where such an anchoring system sounds a bit dangerous!

Note: An important point to consider also is the concept of 'traction'. Click on link: http://www.rei.com/learn/Snowsports/rei/learn/snow/glnordicf
