Hanging vintage skis on wall.

Your solution to hanging vintage and antique skis without drilling a hole into the ski. The pressure from the front mounted ski will hol. It not only looks great but really works well to secure your skis to the wall. The leather strap method.

Go to a thrift store and find a belt that matches or contrasts with the color of your skis for an inexpensive piece of art. Designed to resemble antique ski fasteners we custom build these ski wall mounts in store. Drill the lower screw side of leather strip into your marked spot and then have your spotter hand up the skis. You could easily hang them by using an old leather belt screwed into the wall to hold them up that way you don t damage the skis and you could even take them off the wall and use them.

Now place the crossed skis against the wall and hold with your non dominate hand face or other body part. Imagine you just spend one month s salary on a set of antique wooden skis and now you re contemplating drilling a hole straight through them.

If you do have the luxury of two ladders or your spotter is 8 feet tall have them hold the skis in position while you work. Leather strips vary slightly in color and patina.
