In this paper, we classify the rotational surfaces with constant skew\ncurvature in 3-space forms. We also give a variational characterization of\nthe profile curves of these surfaces as critical points of a curvature energy\ninvolving the exponential of the curvature of the curve. Finally, we provide a\nconverse process to produce all rotational surfaces with constant skew\ncurvature based on the evolution of a critical curve under the flow of its\nbinormal vector field with prescribed velocity.\n
