Salomon: innovation for every skier
A brand born in the Alps
Salomon’s story began in Annecy, in the French Alps, in 1947. Initially specialising in ski edges, the brand gradually established itself in winter sports through technical innovations, particularly in ski bindings and boots. Over the years, it has developed recognised expertise in equipment designed to improve comfort, control and skiing sensations.
S/MAX: precision and enjoyment on piste
The S/MAX range is designed for skiers who enjoy groomed pistes, precise turns and a dynamic skiing style. It is particularly suitable for those looking to improve their technique and gain confidence when carving turns.
Stance: all-mountain versatility
Stance skis are designed for skiers who enjoy exploring different types of terrain. Depending on the model and conditions, they offer versatility for skiing on piste as well as handling changing snow conditions.
QST: freedom and freeride thrills
The QST range is designed for freeride enthusiasts and skiers who love wide-open spaces. Depending on the model, these skis offer features suited to fresh snow and off-piste terrain. They are intended for skiers looking to explore beyond marked runs, with the appropriate technical ability and safety precautions.
MTN: discover the mountains
The MTN range is designed for ski touring. It prioritises lightweight construction and efficiency on the ascent while retaining the characteristics needed for enjoyable descents. The right model depends on your touring style, planned elevation gain and ability level.
How do you choose the right Salomon skis?
The right model depends on several factors, including your ability, height, preferred skiing style and snow conditions. If you mainly ski on piste, choosing skis suited to your technique will help you turn more easily and progress with confidence. If you want greater versatility, an all-mountain model may be a better option. Freeride and touring skis are designed for more specific needs, so terrain and conditions should be taken into account. If you are unsure, the Sport 2000 team can help you find the right category of equipment for your holiday.
