The present invention relates to an alpine ski including a tip zone located at the front of the ski, a waist zone, and a tail zone located at the rear of the ski, a median longitudinal plane extending from the front end to the rear end of the ski, an underside formed by a gliding sole bordered by edges, a zone for mounting a boot. The alpine ski further defined by a radius of curvature measured along the sidecut of the alpine ski.

Alpine ski with improved sidecut

A slide board for use on snow has a point of maximum width located beyond the contact line. The board includes a core extending over the greater part of the board, and a plurality of mechanical reinforcement layers lying directly or indirectly on the core, extending inside the board upturn beyond the contact line. The reinforcement layers are inclusive of that part of the board comprising the longitudinal axis. At least one of the reinforcement layers has an extreme longitudinal point offset transversely relative to the longitudinal axis of the board and, in a zone defined between the contact line and the point of maximum width, the reinforcement layer has an overall cross-section which decreases between the contact line and the point of maximum width. The reinforcement layers have extreme longitudinal points offset longitudinally relative to each other.
