Abstract

Fastening means for the wrist strap of a ski stick, said means being positioned in a cavity (3) of the knob (2) of a stick handle (1). The fastening means is a removable unit separable from the stick knob and consisting of two plastic elements (5) and (7), between which said wrist strap (4) can be anchored as desired. The plastic elements are discrete elements within which the opposite ends of wrist strap (4) are embedded by molding. One (5) of the elements is anchored by profile locking (10, 11) in anchoring grooves (10) on the walls of cavity (3) in such a position that a wrist strap anchoring point (6) will be on the top face of said element. The other plastic element (7) is wedged into a downwards converging space between the wall of cavity (3) and the first plastic element (5) in such a position that another wrist strap anchoring point (8) will be on the lower face of the first element. The section of wrist strap (4) between plastic elements (5) and (7) is passed through between plastic elements (5) and (7). The abutting faces of plastic elements are jagged (15, 17). With said wrist strap (4) straightened out, said jagged faces (15, 17) of plastic elements (5, 7) face in the same direction. The fastening means is manufactured by passing a continuous strap material through the adjacent mold cavities of plastic elements (5, 7) and afterwards strap (4) is cut between plastic elements (5, 7).
