摘要 |
The invention discloses an improved ski climber system that overcomes a number of long-standing climber problems by (1) eliminating the tendency of climbers to slide out from under the ski on turns and traverses through the use of plastic stiffeners, (2) providing a more positive and faster means of climber attachment and removal from skis by the use of mushroom and loop fasteners, (3) strap protection from ski edges, rocks, and ice and strap replacement through the use of plastic panels and strap slots in the climber, (4) climber removal without the necessity of ski removal through an improved tail section design, (5) ultrasonic sealing of nylon or polypropylene climber fabrics to prevent fraying, (6) the accommodation of very narrow widths of climber fabric for touring and racing, (7) longitudinal climber adjusting and tensioning, and (8) one climber length that fits most skis.
