Abstract
Abstract A grip which allows the skier to hold said grip directly so that he may release the latter in the case of an emergency, for instance if he drops off a ski lift and the ski-stick is entangled with the latter. To this end, the grip carries a tassel the outer ends of which are secured respectively to the upper and lower ends of the actual grip. Thus the skier passes four fingers through the gap left between the tassel and the grip so as to grasp the grip with said fingers, his thumb remaining outside said grip.
