A ski with an improved, three-dimensional, running surface with a plurality of protuberances inclined with respect to the bottom plane of the running surface by rising towards the rear end of the ski, and the surface further characterized by a longitudinal pattern comprising: a gliding region beginning near the front end of the ski, wherein the protuberances terminate in convexly shaped, drop-off edges; a transition region, wherein the protuberances terminate in straight, drop-off edges, followed by a kick region roughly in the center of the ski's camber, wherein the protuberances terminate in concavely shaped, drop-off edges, followed by a second transition region; and a rear-glide region extending to near the rear end of the ski. |
