ABSTRACT:
A ski security system includes a moveable rack for supporting pairs of skis when not it use. The rack is formed of two tubular members of galvanized steel tubing each bent in a single piece to form a leg portion at each end with an intermediate transverse portion therebetween. In service, each transverse portion extends between the tops of the two respective leg portions, which are themselves attached to the opposite two legs of the other tubular member. The transverse members are spaced apart from one another to form a yoke for carrying. The racks are stackable for storage, and light enough to be moved to an inside storage location daily. Each leg portion is bent to form a knee portion located proximate the top thereof and near the transverse portion. The two tubular members are joined at each end, being connected at the respective knee portion of each, the legs extending away therefrom upward and downward as well as outward. The transverse portion of each tubular member is provided with a continuous filament formed into alternating slots and loops. Slots receive standing skis leaned against the transverse member. Loops receive a locking mechanism to secure the skis to the rack. The locking mechanism may be permanently or temporarily attached to the loops, and is adjustable to snugly fit different types of skis.
