I love this brand and can relate to many sayings on their oven mitts! Didn't know about the bags, they look so fun!

My skis have always been heavy and too heavy for the brakes on the bindings. I couldn't carry them vertically by the bindings without them separating within 30 seconds of walking.
This season, I saw a video online of a new strap that ties them together with a flexible rubbery strap that also works good when the skis are wet. The best thing is that they also clip in your skipoles so you can transport and carry them without having to carry your poles :-) I've used it this season and it made me much more mobile than before, and my skis didn't separate all the time with the clipstic. I thought it was nice to also share it here since I really like it.

Welcome! Being petite, I've always had trouble carrying my skis. I've tried all sorts of accessories in the past two decades.My skis have always been heavy and too heavy for the brakes on the bindings. I couldn't carry them vertically by the bindings without them separating within 30 seconds of walking.

What's been working well is The Ski Pack by Pure Mountain Fun, which I found at Snowbound Expo in Boston in Nov 2022. It was invented by a 4th grader as a school project. I had the pleasure of talking to her (now in middle school) last fall.
I used my Ski Pack at Crested Butte and Keystone when getting to/from the bus stop. Made a big difference.

I'm very fortunate to keep skis in 2 of my main places I ski so I only have to carry a boot bag when going to one of them. I have a giant kulkea boot trekker that holds everything. My SO has the thermal trekker and loves it. They are pretty big and hold all gloves, boots, helmet, etc, etc. When we travel to Killington or Stratton I bring my boot bag and carry my skis and poles but since the bag holds everythjing it's easy enough.
