A dual-purpose device that can be used to both carry a pair of skis and be used to lock skis. The device has a main line with looped ends, and a second line attached to a midsection of the main line having one exterior looped end. One of the looped ends of the main line is slipped over a pair of skis behind a foot support, and second line is wrapped about the skis and the other looped end of the main line is passed through the second line exterior loop, and can be draped over a shoulder of a user and held by a user's hand like a handle. Moving the handle raises and lowers the position of the skis. The skis are supported in a vertical position behind and separated from the user's back where the main line further acts as a cushion between the user's back and the skis. An adjustably positioned shoulder pad can be used to further cushion the main line from the user's shoulder. The device can be similarly used as a lock where instead of being draped over a shoulder the same looped end is wrapped about a ski rack, or pole and fastened to the second line's exterior looped end with a padlock.
