A hand carrier for skis and ski poles has a handle and a pair of panels hinged at their upper edges to the handle. Each panel is generally U-shaped in cross section with inner and outer walls and a bottom wall that together define a ski-receiving channel. Skis held in the channels rest on the bottom walls and deflect the outer wall laterally. Because the panels are each formed in one piece of a resilient material, the deflection develops a spring force that grips the skis between the inner and outer walls. A single hinge pin connects the panels to the handle and allows movement of the panels from a downwardly hanging position during carrying to a horizontal co-planar position for mounting the skis on one type of car ski rack. A pair of clip-type holders secured on opposite sides of the handle above the panels releasably engage the ski poles.

A hand held carrier for a pair of skis and a pair of ski poles comprising, handle means having a hand opening and having first hinge means formed on one edge that extends generally in said first direction, first and second panel means having second and third hinge means, respectively, formed on their upper edges that extend generally in said first direction, said first, second and third hinge means being mutually intermeshed and axially aligned along said first direction, a hinge pin pivotally engaging said first, second and third hinge means, said first and second panel means each including an inner wall, an outer wall and a bottom wall spanning said inner and outer walls that together define a ski-receiving channel, said walls being formed integrally of a resilient material having an inherent tendency to assume a relaxed position, said outer wall being deflected laterally away from a relaxed position proximate said inner wall when one of said skis is received in said channel to develop a gripping force on said one ski, and clip means formed integrally with said handle means of a resilient material for releasably engaging a pair of ski poles each extending generally in said first direction.
