Abstract: A ski carrying device including a carrying strap having a first end with first and second loops. The first loop is captive to the second loop in chain formation so that the loops can pivot freely relative to one another. Alternatively, the loops can be fixed together. The first loop is adapted to be looped around a pair of skis to retain the skis together, and the second loop is adapted to be looped around part of a boot binding on one of the skis, to support the weight of the skis when the carrying strap is picked up. A second end of the strap carries at least another loop adapted to be looped around another part of the pair of skis.
