Born in New Hampshire, Melissa grew up skiing on the east coast before moving to Utah in 2013 to seek out the so-called best snow on earth. In 2019 she set out to New Zealand to be a ski instructor for the season and loved it so much that she immediately started a second season of instructing upon returning to Park City. Melissa still resides in Utah for most of the year and loves to ski and mountain bike.

This bestseller is back for the 2024 season with options in waist width of 92, 98, and 106 cm. Fun, easy to ski, and confidence inducing, are a few words to describe these Salomon skis, built for anyone who wants to explore the whole mountain.

The use of cork and fiber rather than metal allows this ski to turn with ease, giving it a fun and nimble feel on the mountain. Meanwhile, the double sidewall construction allows for superb grip on the groomers. Stiffness isn’t too harsh either, making these skis approachable for the intermediate skier yet still fun for the expert.

This ski stands out for just about everyone, with the exception of those skiing mostly hard and scraped off groomers, or deep powder. Dive into a few feet plus of fresh pow, and even the 106 won’t be floating.

This ski can make an okay skier good and a good skier great. When it comes to versatility, this ski is about as “all-mountain” as it gets.
