This new 2018 Salomon QST range is really surprising. If the fat skis are amazing in powder, this QST 92 is a supercharged all-mountain ski ready to tackle the slopes and get out of the beaten path with its 92mm waist and its tip rocker to go and play on every terrains.
We have here the stiffest and most powerful ski of the new Backside all-mountain ski serie. The QST 92 allows to slay big lines on slopes and offers a perfect edge hold at high speed. With its classical camber, the effective edge is long enough to push the limits of the ski on any snow conditions. It was a true challenge for Salomon to come up with this QST 92 as playful as powerful in fresh powder. Its waist is only 92mm wide but its tapered shape and its tip rocker allow it to float in deep naturally. How can you not appreciate the light koroyd tip which absorb terrain asperities to deliver a great comfort on crud and crusty snow. The QST 92 is the perfect ski to enjoy big powder days and lay trenches on every virgin faces of the mountain.
TOTAL EDGE REINFORCEMENT
Fiber reinforcement directly on top of edges improves durability, edge grip, and shock and resistance.
PULSE PAD
A layer of rubber all along the edges and in critical zones of the ski for smoother ride & improved ski-snow contact.
SEMI TWIN TAIL
Slight rise to the tail of the ski.
CARVE ZONE
The traditionally cambered section of twin rocker skis, where the sidecut is focused for more power, energy and edge grip.
HOOK FREE TAPER
5 Point sidecut, Tip & Tail taper at extremities. The widest point in the sidecut tapers in toward the tip earlier for less drag and hooking in powder. Swing weight is also reduced making the ski even more maneuverable in difficult snow.
ALL-TERRAIN ROCKER 2.0
With a slight tip and tail rise, All Terrain Rocker 2.0 adds an extra dimension of versatility and control for all mountain skiing. Camber in the middle of the ski and full length contact guarentees strong edge grip, stability and power for hard snow and piste skiing. In addition to the excellent terrain absorption and intuitive turn initiation, the slight twin rocker also allows the ski to pivot much easier when ski is flat, increasing control and maneuverability in all condition.
CFX SUPERFIBER
Unique prepreg fiber layer consisting of Carbon and Flax woven together, running the full length of the ski. Combines the incredible strength and minimal weight of carbon fiber for stability and reinforcement, with an increased level of dampening and vibration absorption above & beyond anything found on traditonal carbon and light ski constructions. Patented and exclusive to Salomon.
KOROYD TIP
More Float, Less FLop. Super light honeycomb/Koroyd Tip insert, reinforced with ABS. Less weight at the extremties with increased dampening from Koroyd dramatically increases maneuverability and ease of steering on rockered skis.
POWER TRANSFER PLATFORM
Elastimer pads within the construction of the ski at the ends of the X-Chassis increase smoothness of power transfer to edges for a more progressive feel, while also filtering vibrations.
SPACEFRAME 3.0 AMB
Spaceframe is made out of an Inverted 3D Woodcore inserted with Carbon Flax & Power Transfer Platform.
FULL SANDWICH SIDEWALLS 360°
Full sandwich, ABS sidewall construction, extending around the entire sidewall.
INVERTED 3D WOODCORE
Internally milled Woodcore.
