Built to handle the unexplored powder that's waiting off the lift as well as the groomed runs used to get there, the Salomon Shogun skis offer you the versatility to explore the entire mountain.

Full-wood core delivers direct transmission of power with precision and efficiency; designed for demanding skiers who require high performance
Bamboo fibers in the topsheet add natural flex and pop; crushed basalt is added to a fiberglasslike fiber that is placed above the wood core to absorb shock
Edgy Monocoque offers precise edge grip and efficient energy transfer from skier to snow for pulling off freeski maneuvers
Thermoplastic/elastomer Pulse Pads placed over the edges absorb vibrations, resulting in a smooth ride that softens ski-to-snow contact in tip and tail
Rocker technology features a progressive inverse camber that excels in soft snow and promotes stable performance on hardpack
Upward curvature, beginning 350mm back from tip, helps skis float high in the deep stuff; standard camber underfoot and in tail promotes stability and grip on groomers
Semi twin-tip tail lets you ride backwards if needed and stick the occasional switch landing
Strong polyethylene fiber threaded between the edges of the skis increases edge strength by 25% to withstand big impacts in the park and pipe
High-density P-tex 4000 graphite base absorbs wax well, glides effortlessly over snow and offers high abrasion resistance
Beefy metal edges withstand big impacts and improve shock resistance

Please note: Salomon products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

Comments about Salomon Shogun Skis - '09/'10:

Just made my first run's on the new Salomon Shogun in 173 length....

I'm 5'8" 220lbs and my other ski's are Elan Magfire 12's. on my first run I was confused the shogun seemed to turn and edge sharper and tighter than my Magfire 12's in 160?.... how could this be?

After playing around and adjusting to the width and balance of these ski's I found they will bomb down the mountain in huge arc's or rip some of the tightest turn's you've ever ski'ed and I haven't even tried them in powder yet this was just another groomed day in the north east.

They were Very light and easy to manuver with the slightest of input on my part. I found my self playing arround with skiing switch more and more as the day progressed ;-) I was able to play a bit with some crud o nthe edges of trails and where i would have been thrown before the Rocker tip seemed to ease and slice through anything.

I would recomend going longer on these ski's there very nimble and quick... a blast to ski.
