ABSTRACT:
A portable ski rest is provided for use on a ski lift chair to support the skis of a skier seated thereon. The portable ski rest includes a ski support member upon which the skier's skis rest. The ski support member is suspended on an elongate flexible cord from a bracket which is placed between the skier's thighs and the chair seat. The elongate flexible cord is woven through the bracket and connects to a belt worn at the skier's waist. When the skier places his feet and skis on the ski support member, their full weight is transmitted by a first section of the flexible cord extending between the bracket and ski support member as a tensile force to the bracket. The section of flexible cord extending between the bracket and the belt transmits a tensile force which is less than the force in the first section, the balance of the force being borne by the chair seat. A carrier is provided on the belt for carrying the ski support member in a stowed, portable position when the ski rest is not in use.
