Abstract
A method of manufacturing a ski in which bonding portions join non-metal side members (20) and a metal sheet (18) to form a cap preform section. The cap preform section is pressed downward against the top surface of a core (14) and heat is applied to bond the cap preform section to the core (14). The bonding portions include bonding strips (22) formed of a thermoplastic material that becomes adhesive when subjected to pressure and heat at a sufficiently high temperature.
