Abstract

A shell composed of semi-rigid material which covers the top, the front, the sides and the bottom of the gloved hand of a skier when clenched on a ski pole hand-grip and which has a larger volume than the gloved hand when clenched on the hand-grip, so that the gloved hand does not come in contact with the shell. This shell being metallized inside with reflective material. The top part rises above the top of the hand-grip and is kept spaced from it through a spacer and is attached by way of a screw. The bottom part has a slanted surface toward the rear and the bottom and has a hole in it, which receives the ski pole, in order to attach the bottom part of the shell to the ski pole.
