What salomons would you guys reccomend Im 5'7 and light but I ski hard all mountain
Not a park rat but i like jumps
^ yea like him, suspect, lord or czar.
dont be afraid of the 'rocker' on the czar, its tiny. barely even come into play
Salomon's aren't the same anymore, most of their skis are way stiffer and woodcore. So I diagree with youre comment.
And to answer the thread question I would say that if you get Whistler type conditions I would suggest the Czar hands down or the Lord.
If you're a jib rat then Dumont, Suspects, Threats in that order of stoke and budget.
most versatile Salomon is 1080, Wide enough to float and now wood core to take abuse. Maybe the 161 length or if u wan more float 171. This will all mtn, pipe, park and groomer & powder. The Salomon GUN is about 10mm wider so if u want more capability for deep stuff. Suspect & Dumont have a more drastic sidecut but are park, groomer and pipe oriented. Lord & Czar are more big mtn than park..both rockered for float. A more softer pow ski usually works better in slush, wet stuff and skier chop.
Pick the conditions u want to ski. Pick a ski.
buy line chronic's. there pretty much the best all mountain do anything ski. period.
the 1080 aniversery ski. I was looking at it in my shop its got a nice flex was considered an all mountain twintip. I think it would the perfect ski if your looking for somthing to do everything on. It was also cheaper then the suspect. You probaly want 171 in length.
