Abstract

A ski has a filling core, for example, polyurethane foam, a shell forming an upper face and lateral faces of the ski and a lower face including longitudinal metal edges and a central sliding sole. The ski has two longitudinal reinforcement elements which extend at least in the central part of the ski and are arranged on either side of the core. The two longitudinal reinforcement elements contact the core and at least part of the internal surface of the lateral faces of the ski. Each reinforcement element includes a lower face which extends mainly over a width of a corresponding edge to provide support, and extends over at least a part of a height of the ski.
