ABSTRACT:
A process of assembling a ski and a ski structure assembled according to the process. The ski includes a plurality of subassemblies which are attached by applying a thermoplastic material to each of the subassemblies; placing the thermoplastic surfaces of adjacent subassemblies together; heating the thermoplastic junction or junctions; and cooling the thermoplastic junction or junctions to thereby effect a weld. The process of assembling the ski permits the shape of the ski to be modified or at least one of the subassemblies to be removed and replaced by subsequent heating of at least the thermoplastic junctions. The use of glue to attach the subassemblies together is avoided to obtain the reversibility of the assembly of the subassemblies.
