Take the women's Salomon BBR Sunlite skis for a spin and enjoy the smooth transition from groomed runs to off-piste terrain.
- The Salomon BBR Sunlite skis work well if you're sticking to the groomed runs, but they are ideal if you find yourself switching between groomed runs and off-piste terrain
- Instead of the traditional parabolic or X-shaped profile found in most modern skis, the BBR uses a V-shaped profile to achieve a great balance between flotation and carving
- Tips are wider than the tails by at least 32mm, creating a progressive sidecut that initiates and exits turns with ease
- Tips are also shaped to reduce weight and minimize chatter when carving at high speeds
- Wide, surfboard-inspired tips feature a very low profile rise that floats in powder and smooths out the ride in rough terrain
- The narrowest part of waist is behind heels, allowing a versatile weight distribution on skis
- Pintail releases out of turns easily and enhances control
- Light density composite core offers enough power to dig into the turn, yet offers substantial weight savings over other ways to make a ski
- Bamboo fibers in the topsheet add natural flex and pop
- Elastomer inserts placed over the front of the skis absorb vibrations, resulting in a smooth ride that softens ski-to-snow contact
- Relatively narrow waist offers a tight turning radius and enhances grip on firm snow
- Slightly raised tails let you ride backward and stick the occasional switch landing
- Semi sandwich increases stability underfoot with lively side-to-side response
- Strong polyethylene fiber threaded between the edges of the skis increases edge strength to withstand big impacts
- Requires bindings with wide brakes
- Base or topsheet color may vary from online photo
