Abstract: A portable and collapsible skier's seat includes a male seat component and a female seat component, each pivotably mounted to a respective standard ski pole by a supporting sleeve. The seat is formed by extending each seat component to a perpendicular orientation with respect to the associated pole, and then inserting the male seat component into a receiving channel of the female seat component to form a rigid bar-like seat extending between generally parallel ski poles. To disassemble the seat and immediately resume skiing, the ski poles are simply pulled apart to separate the seat components, and then each component is tapped downwardly toward its attached pole. A spring pulls the seat component downwardly into engagement with a locking mechanism for holding the seat component in a parallel orientation with respect to the pole.
