The Salomon QST 106 is a versatile all-mountain ski that thrives in a wide range of conditions, making it a favorite for skiers who want one ski to do it all. With its 106mm waist and rocker-camber-rocker profile, it balances float in powder with edge grip and stability on firmer snow. Built with Salomon’s C/FX technology, combining carbon and flax for lightweight strength, the QST 106 offers a lively yet damp ride that feels responsive and confidence-inspiring.
In powder, the QST 106 shines with easy float and maneuverability, making it a joy to slash, smear, and explore off-piste terrain. On groomers, it carves with surprising precision for a ski of its width, holding an edge well and remaining stable at higher speeds. Its agility in mixed conditions, from crud to tracked-out snow, is impressive, making it an adaptable choice for skiers who like to venture wherever the snow takes them.
While not the stiffest or most aggressive ski in its class, the QST 106 is forgiving enough for intermediate skiers while still offering plenty of performance for advanced riders. It’s not a specialist ski for park or pure carving, but its versatility is hard to beat for those who want a do-it-all option. Whether you’re chasing powder, cruising groomers, or tackling steeps, the Salomon QST 106 delivers a smooth, balanced ride that makes every day on the mountain more enjoyable.
