ABSTRACT:
A slalom water ski comprises an elongated ski body and front and rear foot bindings mounted on the ski body. The ski body includes a pair of assymetrical sides which provide the ski with a strong side and a weak side. The strong side has a relatively sharp pivot point in the area of the foot bindings and extends inwardly toward the longitudinal centerline of the ski and the front and rear portions of the ski. The weak side curves smoothly from the forward end to the tail end and extends generally parallel to the longitudinal centerline of the ski adjacent the front foot binding. A beveled portion extends between each of the sides and the bottom surface, and the angle between the beveled portion and the bottom is greater on the strong side than on the weak side.
