We all know the Problem

Nearly every beginner skier struggles with ski pole wrist straps. They can't find the opening, twist the straps, insert hands incorrectly, and become frustrated.

Skier with ski poles

Rental employees spend valuable time repeatedly helping customers. For ski schools, every lesson begins with instructors helping students figure out their straps before skiing even starts.

Our Solution

The guide keeps the wrist strap open and properly positioned.

  • This allows skiers to:
  • Easily find the opening
  • Insert their hand naturally
  • Learn proper strap positioning
  • Reduce frustration
  • Get onto the snow faster
