Salomon QST 92 Skis - 2020

Last year, the QST 92 was the younger brother not old enough to toast with a beer at older bro's bachelor party. No more. The 2019-2020 QST 92 has come of age, receiving all the major updates shared by the wider QST 99 and QST 106. And those updates, when applied in the narrower 92mm waist width, make the QST 92 a wildly intriguing option for all-mountain skiers who split their time evenly between humble off-piste excursions and gregarious frontside hot laps. Like all the QSTs, advanced and expert skiers will find them easy to ski but not limiting. And really, that's what most skiers want. Intermediate skiers, meanwhile will find in the QST 92 an accessible ski with a high ceiling that inspires confidence. Carbon, flax, and basalt are mixed in the construction for a damp, energetic, and smoothly refined feel. Cork inserts in the tips of the skis reduce vibration and increase float in soft snow. Redesigned rocker and taper improve edge hold for groomer skiing. Game on, brother.
