In this video I’m joined by Al from The Ski Podcast to cover a surprisingly important bit of ski travel etiquette: how to carry your skis properly without taking anyone’s eyes out. Whether you’re walking through a busy resort village, squeezing onto a ski bus, or just heading from the train station to your accommodation, the way you hold your skis makes a huge difference to everyone around you — and, yes, to whether you look vaguely ‘cool’ while doing it. I talk through the practical, common-sense ways to carry skis so you stay balanced, keep the sharp bits away from other people, and avoid clattering into doors, lift queues, and unsuspecting passers-by. It’s a simple skill, but it’s one of those things that makes your whole ski trip smoother — especially when you’re travelling with skis, moving through crowds, or handling other kit at the same time. If you want to look after your gear, look after other people, and move confidently around resort, this is the quick how-to you need.
