ABSTRACT:
A ski pole comprising a tube having a lower pointed end with a transverse member or disc on the tube adjacent the pointed end and a hand grip on the tube at the upper end. The hand grip includes a grip column and a grip guard cooperatively defining a grip opening for receiving the hand of a user. The grip has an upper end constituting an impact surface at the upper end of the pole and the grip includes a block-shape fitting engaging the upper end of the tube. The grip may include a hollow portion which can be filled with pressurized air and which will vary the size of the grip opening. A glove or other suitable skier-engagement member can be connected to the grip by a magnet and the connection is made through a yieldable member which allows the skier-engagement member to be displaced away from the ski pole while remaining connected thereto. The ski pole has magnets which allows the ski pole to be connected to a second ski pole.
