EASY SKI LIFT ACCESS: Straps tuck into the attached pouch. Once off the lift, you can quickly pull them out of the pouch and take your next run! ELASTICIZED LEASHES: The leashes are attached with a bungee rope, allowing for a smooth ride down the mountain for both the beginner skier/rider and the adult!
