About the Salomon QST 106
The QST 106 is part of Salomon's freeride range designed to be relied upon on in any condition, regardless of the forecast, day in and day out. This fun-loving free-rider has a versatile 106mm waist with a damp, carbon construction. The Rockered tip and tail allow for quick, pivoting turns, while classic construction adds stability and power to take on the burliest of lines, or the most playful glades.
Measuring 106mm at the waist, this ski offers the perfect balance between soft-snow off-piste performance and piste edge-to-edge speed for carving, with its wide, rockered tips and subtlety rockered tails it can easily dip off the side of the piste and glide over the deeper snow to be found between trees or under chairlifts. That rocker helps turn initiations stay smoothly simple, too, along with camber underfoot to keep the hardpack performance impressive all over.
When charging at high speeds on groomers, the 106 holds up well thanks to a new tip-to-tail carbon-powered C/FX layer that takes the supercharged construction to the next level for increased power and edge grip. This is done by weaving Flax fibers along with Carbon, it allows the ski to reap the benefits associated with carbon fiber -a lightweight increase in torsional stiffness - while dampening and smoothing the ride quality.
The stability of this ski is further improved with the use of Cork amplifier technology which is exclusive to Salomon and reduced vibrations and chatter to improve stability.
The QST 106 is perfect for the All-Mountain skier who wants to be able to dive off the side of groomers at a moment's notice and know that their skis won't let them down.
- Full Sandwich Sidewall - ABS construction running around the entire sidewall adds strength and increases ski/snow contact
- C/FX Superfiber - A weave of Carbon and Flax fibers improves torsional stiffness and dampens the ski while remaining extremely lightweight
- All-Terrain Rocker - Rockered tip for easy turn initiation and maximum floatation, camber underfoot to improve stability at speed and edge grip on hard pack, subtle tail rocker for smooth turn exits
- Hook Free Taper - The Ski has a sidecut which tapers in the tip and tail at their extremities, the result is easy turn initiation and maneuverability, especially in soft snow
- Full Woodcore - A full Poplar wood core running from tip to tail gives maximum stability and filters vibrations along the entire ski
- Power Transfer Platform - Titanium laminate in the center of the ski, improving the torsional stiffness and overall stability as well as helping power transmission to the edges of the ski when riding on hard snow
- Cork Damplifier Technology - Cork is 16 times more absorbing than Koroyd, by using it in the tip and the tail enables high levels of absorption and increased Stability while saving even more weight
