Claim:
A snowmobile ski comprising: a longitudinally extending runner having a bottom running surface; a keel extending downward from the bottom running surface of the runner; a generally flat, elongate wear strip having top and bottom surfaces, the top surface being generally contoured to abut the bottom surface of the keel; and two skags extending longitudinally along the keel and downward from the bottom surface of the wear strip, the skags each having an inside surface and an outside surface, the skags spaced laterally from each other to define a longitudinal channel between the inside surfaces of the skags, the inside surfaces of the skags extending downward from the surface of the wear strip in a laterally non-inward direction, the bottom running surface defining a longitudinal center, the skags being positioned such that they extend longitudinally more rearwardly of the running surface center than forwardly of the running surface center.
