Abstract: A pair of skis for alpine skiing, with asymmetrically waisted skis (1, 2), each ski (1, 2) at its outside comprising a sidecut (24) of heavier curvature than at its inside; to facilitate parallel guiding of the skis when going through curves, with equally loaded skis (1, 2), the waisting at the outside of each ski (1, 2) is rearwardly offset relative to that at the inside by a distance (X) in the range of centimeters, and the beginning of the waisting (24) at the outside of each ski (1, 2), following upon the shovel region, is outwardly offset as compared to the waisting (25) at the inside, by a distance (Y) in the range of millimeters; in this manner, when going in curves, when the two skis (1, 2) are guided at a distance (D) in the range of decimeters from each other, with the outer ski (1) rearwardly offset in travel direction relative to the inner ski (2), the waistings (24; 15) of the outside of the inner ski (2) and of the inside of the outer ski (1) describe at least approximately concentric arcs (16,
