Patent ID: 11497982

Abstract:
The preferred embodiment of an apparatus for ski pole retention and storage is provided. A proximal half of a cuboid bracket embodied in a U-shape is substantially connected, via a hinge, to a distal half of a cuboid bracket embodying the same characteristics. Both the proximal and distal halves are secured with a binding strap and ratchet located on the plane opposite the hinge. The preferred embodiment also comprises of elastic straps that bias the apparatus to an open position. A binding strap is substantially fixed to said proximal half and said binding ratchet is substantially fixed to said distal half. Both the proximal and distal halves of the cuboid bracket have interior surfaces to which high-density foam is substantially connected. The exterior surface of the proximal half of the cuboid bracket comprises a second mechanism by which it attaches the body of the apparatus to a rigid surface.
