Abstract

A ski includes longitudinal reinforcement elements that are supported on edges of the ski and that form the lateral sides of the ski. The reinforcement elements also serve to support and fix the sides of a shell of the ski. In one zone of the ski, the height of the reinforcement elements may be substantially equal to the height of the ski, while in at least one other zone of the ski, the height of the reinforcement elements is smaller than the height of the ski. The shell includes a central portion and peripheral wings. In at least one zone of the ski, the central portion of the shell is spaced above the peripheral wings, the central portion being connected to the peripheral wings by a lateral side portion.
