This is a well thought out ski and pole carrier that is easy to use and well made.
Our family races in Minnesota with the high school team. We ski three to four times a week and there is lots to carry with all the clothing and gear we need every day. These Bowtie carriers are the bomb! We can now carry everything in one trip with a hand still free to open and close doors.
It takes less than ten seconds to bind up your skis and poles, and I do mine standing up - no need to bend over. The strap is adjusted so that I can sling them over my shoulder like a hunting rifle, grab my boot/gear bag and it's an easy walk to lodge to get ready.
Although I normally leave my skis outside the lodge when I get to the door, I'll take the bowtie off my skis and put it in my boot bag while I ski. Some times I forget to take the bow tie off and I need to put it in a pocket while I ski. No problem at all as it folds up pretty small - about the space of a deck of cards or a pack of cigs. I finely even notice it in my pocket for the day.
It fits my slalom skis really well which are pretty wide. The holder straps look to be able to hold a ski and pole that are about 6" wide at the waist which is pretty fat, but some of the new super wide skis might be a challenge to wrap up. Call me old school but who wants those super fat skis anyway LOL!
All in all I really like this carrier over all the others I've owned over the years. Simple, small, well made and certainly priced right. Get one for the whole crew as the price is certainly right for a gift.
