  • Patent number: 3992021
    Abstract: A strapless ski pole grip includes an elongated body having an axial bore for receiving the shaft of a ski pole. The elongated body includes a radially extending, palm engaging stop which terminates in a wide base to support the entire palm of the skier's hand, back to his wrist. The ends of the elongated body project outwardly and sideways to form side fingers which are located to lie against the back of the skier's hand. The pair of fingers are resilient and move sideways when the ski pole becomes captured to allow sliding withdrawal of the skier's hand.
