That red arrow shows the little strip of
strong elastic that holds everything snug.
We also extended the handle strap a
bit to produce that little tab on each end.
It is surprisingly helpful when you wrap the hook and loop strap around your skis or skis and poles.
It allows you to pull the hook and loop up until you feel a
bit of give from the elastic,
then lets you hold it in place while you bring it down
across the handle to secure it,
without having your fingers be in the way
Little things:
The unique overwrap design
The tiny bit of elastic
The extension tabs for holding
The nylon non-slip webbing
The longest adjustable carry handle strap
The self sealing refold design
The three sizes for your needs
All together add up to the simplest
way to carry your skis and poles.
