ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a device to connect the tips of skis and thereby enable a skier to create, hold, and adjust the shape of a wedge with his skis. The device is comprised of two sleeves which slip over and are secured to the upturned tips of the skis. The sleeves are connected by a length of flexible, stretchable, or both, material. This connection is either fixed or made by a novel easily detachable hook. The device allows the skis to be easily connected or disconnected for lift rides, when walking across flat terrain, or to evaluate the progress of the skier during a lesson. As a result, disclosed is a novel device which enables a skier to make, hold, and adjust a wedge while being easily detached for normal skiing and easily used by a skier or instructor wearing gloves or mittens.
