Ullr Silver Ski Medal

Ullr medal, silver in color, 1 1/2 inches diameter, with a 5 inch black cord to allow one to attach the medal to a pack or jacket. The back side of the medal is translated as 'Patron Saint of Skiers'. Ullr medals have been popular with skiers for over 100 years; they wear them for protection from harm while on the mountain. These medals have become highly collectible.

Ullr is the mythical Norse God of Winter who enjoyed the cold weather and loved traveling throughout the land, gliding along on his skis or snowshoes. He was, in fact, unbeatable on skis, never losing a race. Some believe the Aurora Borealis is the snow flying off the tail of his skis.

In Germanic mythology Ullr is the main ski god of the 19th and 20th century; his character helped to establish a feeling of common identity among skiing pioneers in Norway and Central Europe, who prayed to him to insure the earth will be covered with snow, protecting it from winter's harm.

In the United States, ski towns throw parties and parades in his honor.

Size 1 1/2 inches diameter, with a 5 inch black cord to allow one to attach the medal to a pack or jacket.

5 of 5 Ullr ski medallion April 6, 2021
Reviewer: Juan Morlap from Santa Cruz, CA United States  
My new Ullr silver ski medallion arrived at my house in just 2 days and was exactly as I hoped it would be - a sturdy well-made metal medallion depicting the god Ullr looking like a rad cliff-hucking archer-warrior-skier, all geared up and ready for action. I will wear this sacred ornament around my neck on powder days and thank and praise him for copious freshies!
