The Salomon QST 106 is a versatile freeride ski designed to perform from early-morning groomers to powder and variable off-piste snow. Its 106 mm waist, progressive Freeride Profile and Full Poplar Woodcore balance flotation, stability and maneuverability. Cork Damplifier helps reduce vibration, while Basalt Superlight Fibers and fiberglass reinforcement contribute to a smooth yet energetic ride.

Cork positioned within the rocker zones helps absorb vibration without adding unnecessary weight, creating a smoother and more controlled feel through variable snow.
A Titanal reinforcement beneath the binding area improves power transfer and contributes to stronger edge grip when conditions become firmer.
Lightweight basalt fibers combined with fiberglass reinforce the ski while maintaining energetic, consistent flex and effective edge control across the platform.
Full Sandwich Sidewalls enhance stability and precision while providing strong edge grip and smooth, consistent contact between the ski and snow.
The 106 mm waist provides the surface area required for effective flotation in soft snow while retaining enough maneuverability and control for technical and variable freeride terrain.
Progressive rocker in the tip and tail improves flotation, maneuverability and directional freedom in powder and technical freeride terrain.
Camber underfoot maintains effective snow contact and provides edge grip, stability and control when conditions become firmer.
