ABSTRACT:
A ski pole shaft is cut into two parts and a lock mechanism is interconnected between the two parts. The lock mechanism is telescopically moveable between an open position in which a pair of shackle jaws carried by the two parts are spaced axially apart, and a close position in which the two jaws are close together. One or both of the jaws may be formed to include a cordwise extending groove in the side thereof which faces the other jaw. A security line which is normally housed within the ski pole is pulled out from the ski pole, until an abutment at its inner end meets a stop that prevents further movement. The security line is wrapped about ski equipment and a fixed support and then a portion of its free end is set within the groove and the upper and lower sections of the pole are moved telescopically together. A combination lock carried by one part of the lock mechanism is operated to lock the two sections of the ski pole together. The jaws are together and the security line is prevented from being moved out from the groove or grooves. An enlarged head at the free end of the security line prevents such line from being pulled endwise out from the groove.
