  • Publication number: 20100244351
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for retaining a ski in a position to maintain the ski. The apparatus includes a first support positioned between the front portion of the ski and a support structure to support a front portion of the ski. A second support is positioned between the rear portion of the ski and the support structure to support a rear portion of the ski. A binder engagement including a rigid engagement element engages only one of a binder toe piece and a binder heal piece of a binder. A coupling member couples the binder engagement to the support structure and prevents movement of the ski relative to the support structure in a forward and rearward direction. The supports and the binder engagement apply forces in an opposite direction to secure the ski to the apparatus.
