Two-Piece Skis for Parachutist Easy to Sling Over Shoulder
Item
Skis have been made less bulky and unwieldy for parachute troops by making them in two sections which can be taken apart and carried on a strap over the shoulder. Used first by the Swedish Air Force, they are now being adopted for sport skiing. When the two parts are fitted together the joint becomes invisible and is not noticed in use. Separated, they fit into a casing a little more than four feet long.
