Abstract: A transport caddy preferably includes at least a wheel supporting a base portion, an alpine snow ski detachably secured between the base and cover portions, and a ski pole disposed within the cover portion and secured adjacent the alpine snow ski by an accessories support portion detachably attached to the alpine snow ski is disclosed. Preferably, the ski pole is secured to the transport caddy by steps that include at least: positioning a tip of the ski pole within a pole tip confinement aperture provided by the cover; rotating a ski pole confinement member of the accessories support portion into non-adjacency with a ski pole retention portion of the accessories support portion; disposing a shaft portion of said ski pole within the ski pole retention portion; and re-rotating said ski pole confinement member into pressing contact with the shaft portion.

Abstract: A double throw latch for a carrying case has a first elongated body, a first end of the body being pivotally mounted with one part of a carrying case. There is also a second elongated body that is pivotally mounted on the first elongated body. There is a first hook element on the first elongated body, and the first hook element is located towards a second end of the first elongated body. The first hook element is for engagement with a mating first formation on a second part of the carrying case. There is also an engaging element for engagement with a portion on the first elongated body. The area adjacent to where the second elongated body pivots with the first elongated body provides an inter-engaging surface or element for engagement with an opposite face on the first part of the case. After the second elongated body is toggled a predetermined amount from the closed position, the second elongated body engages the formation of the first elongated body.
