Within the winter [[Cross-country skiing|skiing]] community of Europe, Ullr is considered the Guardian [[Patron Saint]] of Skiers (German ''Schutzpatron der Skifahrer''). An Ullr medallion or ski medal depicting the god on skis holding a bow and arrow, is widely worn as a [[talisman]] by both recreational and professional skiers as well as [[ski patrol]]s in Europe and elsewhere.
