ABSTRACT:
A short, wide snow ski is provided having additional surface area which maintains a skier closer to the surface of powder snow. This provides the advantage of higher speeds through deep power, and in addition, the ski tips are less likely to catch on obstructed objects hidden under the snow. Other advantages of planing near the top of the snow level are more effective steering, straighter tracking, and better balance.
