Abstract A ski lock device for safely clamping a pair of skis in crossed relation to each other to prevent theft. The device includes a pair of clamps that fit about a first ski and over a second ski, with the second ski in crossed relation to the first. Each clamp consists of a pair of slotted members joined together by a threaded joint. A padlock clasp snaps through a hole in each clamp joint to lock the device in place. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION My invention is a ski lock device for safely clamping a pair of skis in crossed relation to each other to prevent theft. The device includes a pair of clamps that fit about a first ski and over a second ski, with the second ski in crossed relation to the first. Each clamp consists of a pair of slotted members joined together by a threaded joint. A padlock clasp snaps through a hole in each clamp joint to lock the device in place. The device, in the locked position maintains a pair of skis in a crossed relation making an unwieldy package for a thief. The padlock may also be locked about a chain to a post.
A device for latching a pair of skis in crossed relation to each other comprising a pair of clamp members, each shaped to fit about one edge of a first ski and over a portion of the top and bottom surfaces of said first ski, each said clamp member formed of two U-shaped sections joined together by a bar, said bar located so as to fit over a second ski resting in crossed relation to a first ski engaged by the clamp member, together with locking means for engaging a pair of clamp members in place.
