ABSTRACT:
A ski gripping apparatus into which a pair of skis is thrust, after which the weight of the skis forces its gripping members to grip the skis to retain them in the device. The device comprises a pair of circular members eccentrically mounted on a support board which slips into an envelope of a backing member that is bolted to a wall. As a pair of skis is manually thrust into a channel between the circular members, these member eccentrically rotate about their corresponding shafts to widen the channel for disposition of the skis. Once the skis are disposed in such channel and the hands taken therefrom, spring biasing means in the members and support board cause them to eccentrically rotate back against the skis to grip them. Means limiting the eccentric motion of each of such members is provided in such members and support board, as well as pegs for ski-pole straps, which pegs also lock the support board to the backing member.
