Abstract:
A ski and pole carrier unit adapted to be used in pairs to secure the skis and poles together is disclosed. Each unit includes a flat rectangular block with a pair of slots projecting inwardly from the long sides of the block and slightly toward one of the short sides. The width of each slot is sufficient to accommodate a ski pole. An L-shaped member is pivotably attached to the block proximate the other of the short sides and foldable from a position flush with two sides of the block to a position extended from the block. In the extended position, the base of the L-shaped member is parallel to the short side of the block and defines a space for receiving a pair of skis in the plane of the poles. A pair of straps are attached to the block, one strap to secure the poles to the slots and the other strap to secure the skis to the L-shaped member. The skis and poles are secured in a common plane by a pair of the units, so that they can easily be carried as a package.
