This invention relates to an antiskid braking system for automotive vehicles, wherein the fluid supply connection provided between a variable fluid braking pressure control source and a set of fluid pressure actuated brake motors is controlled by fluid pressure modulating valve means actuated by output control signals generated by an antiskid unit in response to a skidding condition of the brake vehicle. The fluid supply connection is provided with a restricted area fluid passage disposed between said fluid source and said modulating valve means so as to substantially limit the fluid flow rate to said brake motors upon opening of said fluid supply connection, and thereby to dampen the build-up in pressure to the brake motors.
