1) Hand-grip fashion: Place the ski pole handle through the toe strap of the binding, and slide the pole backward until the tip of the ski enters the basket of the pole. Grasp toe strap and pole shaft together when carrying the ski this way, to prevent the ski from escaping or the pole from slipping out of position. Carry skis with tips forward, so that pole points can be kept clear of others in the party. With running surfaces tied together with toe straps,skis may be carried over the shoulder, care being takenthat they always clear the man behind. The poles may becarried in the other hand, tied to the skis, or carried overthe opposite shoulder. This method is most useful forrough terrain or dense timber. |
