Want an all-mountain destroyer that will happily navigate tight trees and stubborn rock-infested steeps, with enough edge grip to handle the hard groomers on the way back to the lift? The Salomon QST 98 Skis are a winner in this popular category, with weight-saving use of C/FX Carbon-Flax fiber and Cork Damplifier tips and tails to keep swing weight down but smooth performance up.

The Salomon QST Lumen 98 Skis are perhaps the most versatile ski in the current Salomon lineup, capable of railing groomers when needed and taking soft snow and chop in stride when called upon. Light enough to use as a hybrid touring-alpine ski but with the stability and power of many a heavier alpine ride, the Lumen 98 is one of the premier choices on the market.

The introduction of the Mantra marked the beginning of Völkl's powerful freeriding ski line – for those who want to ride free without any restrictions but with all the control of a sporty all-mountain design. The Blaze series adds a new dimension for intuitive freeriders who like performance but appreciate a playful, agile feel as well The Blaze 94 weighs just 1,566 g (@ 179 cm) and is a highly versatile ski for outstanding performance in almost any condition. A 0.3 mm thick Titanal binding platform provides direct power transfer and builds pressure quickly for a fast response when switching edges. The ski's faster, more direct response is especially welcome in narrow and rough terrain – and takes less effort too. The secret largely lies in the 3D radius sidecut. The Blaze is designed primarily for short, fast turns, but its three different radii and tip-to-tail hybrid multi-layer wood core adapt to any riding style, however ambitious. Another notable feature is the suspension tip. An elasticated, rubbery material on the tip and tail acts like a bumper, especially in wind-blown and tracked conditions, making the ski more settled and providing fantastic flotation. The Blaze is popular for freeride touring too, thanks to its light weight. That's why Völkl also offers Smart Glue skins tailored to each Blaze model. - Binding plate premounted: no Recommended binding: - 7933U1.MA KINGPIN 13 75-100MM BLACK/RED - 7831T1.CS KINGPIN MWERKS 12 75-100MM BLACK/RED - 7650U1.ES DUKE PT 16 100MM BLACK/GUNMETAL - 7624U1.JB JESTER 16 ID 100MM BLACK/GRAY - 7524U1.GB GRIFFON 13 ID 100MM BLACK

The best-selling and top-performing Salomon QST 92 Skis are back for another year, and we're happy about it. This is a ski we can recommend with a clear conscience for any intermediate or above skier without worrying that it will a) be too much to handle at slower speeds or b) that it will be disappointed to better skiers at high speeds and on firm snow.

The Blaze 94 W is what we like to call "sporty". It delivers on many levels, but it is made for the high-octane delight of a skier that loves to turn on a dime, in every type of terrain. The 0.3mm thick layer of titanal across the binding platform creates an impressively direct power transfer from skier movement to ski action. Keeping the titanal only under the foot creates an incredibly fun and responsive turning experience, immediately from initiation, with little effort. Although it is designed with short turn radius goals, the 3D Radius Sidecut and Hybrid Multilayer Woodcore significantly enhance the ski's liveliness and maneuverability for any turn shape. At only 1427g (@ 165cm length) and with the addition of the Suspension Tip and Tail (basically a rubbery "bumper" for whatever the ski comes in contact with), it is a fantastic touring ski as well. Regardless of resort skiing glory, off-piste endeavors, or backcountry objectives, the Blaze 94 offers an incredibly wide range of use in all conditions. - tip width: 134 - waist width: 94 - tail width: 116 - sidecut radius center: 11 - binding plate premounted: no - recommended binding: 7933U1.MA KINGPIN 13 75-100MM BLACK/RED;7831T1.CS KINGPIN MWERKS 12 75-100MM BLACK/RED;7550U1.ES DUKE PT 12 100MM BLACK/RED;7524U1.GF GRIFFON 13 ID 100MM WHITE

The Blaze 86 W builds on what the other models are known for lightness, versatility, and agility. Because there is no Titanal, the ski is a bit sprightly and also a bit lighter. The Blaze 86 W is designed for quick, tight turns, although the sidecut's three different radii also master demanding terrain, speed, and long, drawn-out curves. Suspension tips and tails give the ski composure, increase flotation and protect the ski off-piste. The Blaze 86 W is a great ski touring option for backcountry ladies who are happy to accept 100 g of extra weight in exchange for a much-improved skiing experience. Built around a light, high-performance, full tip-to-tail wood core, it can handle ascents and makes descending a pleasure (except if the snow is too deep). A highly versatile technological setup that gives the Blaze 86 W an intuitive feel and an unusual level of creativity.

Freetouring is a real thing these days, never mind the old school Euros who dismiss anyone with a touring binding on a ski wider than 95mm. You know the score, when it's hip deep and falling is not an option, those narrow planks just don't cut it. Get a 109mm waist, some serious rocker, and an ultralight carbon-Paulownia design with the La Machine Mega and leave those dudes floundering.
