94 mm All-Mountain Freeride Ski
Salomon QST 94 Alpine Ski
The Salomon QST 94 Alpine Ski is an all-mountain freeride ski for skiers who want a quick, light 94 mm ski that still floats a few inches of new snow. Salomon's 25/26 QST 94 uses a full poplar woodcore with basalt fibers, a fiberglass laminate and titanal at the binding, with a new shape that has a more squared-off tail for grip when conditions get firm. At 1,810 g per ski in the 180, with a 16.5 m radius, the QST 94 moves easily from groomers to trees to chop.
