Fantastic all mountain ski! Not the lightest or heaviest in its class but somewhere in the middle. I grew up skiing in Vermont so I tend to like a little narrower ski. I now live in Colorado and ski 35-50 days a year. I'm 6'1 190 pounds, love & prefer the trees and bumps. The skis are playful and forgiving and have a short turn radius which I love. If I am on a groomer I prefer chasing the powder on the side of the trail following the tree line down doing making quick small turns. This is NOT the type of ski if you want to make large across the trail carving turns. Double sidewall so it feels strong enough under your foot on ice. Really fun great ski to bang all over the mountain on. Two Thumbs UP!
I'm an adaptive ski instructor and ride a mono ski. This is my favorite ski to teach on and I spent 70+ days on it this past season. It's very responsive and forgiving, it's also very fun and easy to initiate turns with. I get something a little longer and stiffer when skiing for fun, but when teaching beginners this is my go to ski. I also have the QST 99 and 106 but the 92 gets the most love.
Look no further... this is the ski. Super versatile, friendly, and playful. Take it anywhere on the mountain. (sure, the QST98 and 106 will float better in deeper powder). This Ski makes nice and easy shaped short and medium radius turns. The turn radius is impressive, but the double sidewall technology makes for a cool grip and rebound underfoot. This ski does it all. A+ in my book....
I have always skied with classic on-piste skis and I hesitated to jump on this. But I found it the best decision for ski equipment ever! Reliable, easy to turn, really fun ski, easy to ski in a variety of conditions - groomed, ice, soft snow, powder. I am a heavy guy - 187 cm, 120 kg and this skis are gentle on the feet. I am sure I will replace this skis with the same model one day.
Fun ski thats easy to make quick turns with. Really does well in all conditions. It's not a great coast to coast caving ski with its short turn radius but thats ok! This ski is fun and easier on your legs. Skied all day in the bumps and trees today at Keystone, CO today - pleasure! Handled the early crunch bumps well in the morning too.
Wanted something a bit more nimble to ski with the kiddos. The QST 92 delivered that and a lot more. Easy going, doesn't beat you up, and lots of fun. Loses a bit of stability at speed but fine for my needs.
Only skied on these a few times, but they are fun! They carve surprisingly well and shine on fresh snow.
Great ski, light and responsive Best Salomon skis since the “pocket rocket “ and the Salomon “Guns”
Easiest all around ski for powder or groomers, bumps whatever the mountain brings.
