Abstract
The disclosure includes a ski and ski pole carrying device that in many embodiments comprises two ski ties and lanyard. A ski pole strap with the proximal end coupled to a ski sleeve forms the ski tie. The ski ties may leave enough space between the sheaths and the bases to allow a portion of the skis' tips and tails to be slideably received by the ski tie as to secure the skis together. The ski ties may be arranged and configured for the skis' bases to be facing the same direction or in opposite directions. In some embodiments, the ski pole straps are a double sided hook and loop fastener arranged and configured to securely wrap around the respective ski tie and a pair of ski poles. The lanyard may be used in conjunction with the ski ties or independently to aid in carrying the skis and ski poles.
