Abstract
A ski includes a base plate (2) and a raised, central platform (3). A front supplemental element (6a) is removably attached to a front end of the platform and has a pair of longitudinal arms (60, 61) extending forward along a top surface of the base plate. Similarly, a rear supplemental element (6b) is removably attached to the rear of the platform and has a pair of longitudinal arms (62, 63) which extend slidably along the top surface of the base plate. The supplemental elements are removably attached using a tongue (8a, 8b) and slot (9a, 9b) arrangement and a latch (10, 11, 100). A visual indicator (11, 12; 15, 16) indicates when the supplemental element is properly connected. The supplemental elements include a basic structure (600) with supplemental reinforcing elements (601) removably attached to the undersides of the longitudinal arms. By changing the reinforcing elements (601) and changing among supplemental elements with arms of different length and characteristics, the behavior of a ski can be quickly modified to match a user's taste, the terrain, and skiing conditions.
