Such as when carrying these in a SUV, (Sports Utility Vehicle), a car, a truck, or via common carrier, such as a bus, a plane, or a train. In most common carrier's, the owner of these item(s) must sign a waiver limiting the carrier's responsibility for damage to the item. Hence, during the common carrier transport, even a greater need to protect these items exists. This invention is an apparatus solving many basic concerns when transporting these items. First, it must protect the item on all points from damage in any and all directions, both vertical, and horizontal, impact. Second, the apparatus must be lightweight, not offering any greater load to the person carrying the item. Third, the apparatus must be collapsible in order to fit within a small chalet locker, as well for independent storage when not in use for transporting the item. Fourth, it must use conventional coverings or bags that are presently in use today. Fifth, and last, it must be extremely inexpensive as not to offer any greater burden on what these items already cost. For this invention holds the skis 30, the ski poles 31 or snowboard 38 in a multi-point protective enclosure, is lightweight, collapsible, fits within any ski or snowboard bag 32, and because of the embodiments by which it is made, is extremely inexpensive.
