A ski carrier is provided for use with skis to protect bindings, facilitate portability and prevent theft. The carrier is of tubular configuration with opposite ends defining restricatable openings through which ski boards are received, the carrier covering the bindings. A realeasable fastening assemby is provided on the carrier to facilitate its application and removal to and from skis, and both the fastening assembly and carrier body include lock receiving rings on the like to permit locking of the fastening assembly in the carrier closing position and locking of the carrier with skis included to a fixed base. The ski carrier includes padding for protection of the bindings as well as protection of the person carring the skis. The carrier is provided with a shoulder strap to facilitate portability.

A ski carrier in the form of a ski binder cover constructed of flexible material, comprising: a tubular body member of flexible material, said body having a preselected circumference of a size adapted to be received around bindings of a pair of skis to protectively cover same, said flexible material body member having a ski binding covering area and having oppositely positioned open ends adapted to receive a pair of skis therethrough; one of said open ends is fixedly restricted in circumference so as to be adapted to permit the passing of a pair of ski boards therethrough but prevent the passing of ski bindings affixed to such ski boards therethrough; the other of said open ends being of a circumference that is openable and closeable between an open orientation and a closed orientation that provides a substantially fixedly restricted circumference, said open orientation being adapted to selectively permit the passing of ski bindings affixed to such ski boards therethrough while said closed orientation selectively prevents passing of ski bindings through said openable and closeable circumference; carrier means affixed to and extending from said tubular body member of flexible material at locations that are respectively generally proximate to said oppositely positioned open ends of said tubular body member; said tubular body member of flexible material includes anti-theft locking cable-receiving means for locking said tubular body member of flexible material to a fixed base and for preventing removal of skis from said ski carrier by simultaneously locking said other open end in its said substantially fixedly restricted closed orientation; said tubular body member of flexible material further includes releasable fastener means for permitting longitudinal opening of said tubular body member of flexible material in a longitudinal direction so that the ski carrier is adapted to receive a portion of a ski that includes ski binding members; and said anti-theft locking cable-receiving means includes a locking cable-engaging member on said releasable fastener means and a locking cable-receiving member on said tubular body member of flexible material, said locking cable-receiving member being secured to said tubular body member of flexible material at a location generally at said other open end and generally adjacent to the location of said locking cable-engaging member when said releasable fastener means is in a fully closed orientation.
