Apparatus for transport and storage of sporting equipment

An apparatus for transporting ski equipment comprising:

• a central structure having an upper end and a lower end;
• and
• at least one handle pivotally engaged with said central structure upper end;
• and
• at least one horizontal structure pivotally engaged with said central structure upper end;
• and
• at least one pair of horizontal structures pivotally engaged with said central structure lower end;
• and
• a lower support slidably engaged with said central structure lower end;
• and
• a linkage pivot fixedly engaged with said lower support and slidably engaged with said central structure;
• and
• at least one strut pivotally engaged at a first end with said central structure lower end, and rotationally engaged at a second end with at least one wheel;
• and
• at least one linkage arm pivotally engaged at a first end with said linkage pivot;
• and
• pivotally engaged at a second end with said at least one strut;
• and
• at least one wheel rotationally engaged with a second end of said at least one strut;
• wherein
• at least one piece of sporting equipment, supported by said at least one horizontal structure and said at least one pair of horizontal structures, may be wheeled about and maneuvered by said at least one handle;
• said apparatus collapses as said at least one horizontal structure and said at least one pair of horizontal structures pivot to fold against said central structure;
• and said lower support slides along said central structure, thus sliding said linkage pivot;
• said at least one linkage arm and said at least one strut move against said central structure to collapse the apparatus, and the apparatus is unfolded as said lower support is slid along and out of said central structure.
