About this product
The Salomon QST X is a 2026 freeride and powder ski built around a 116mm waist that provides reliable float in deep snow while remaining composed on firmer, variable terrain. Available in 178cm and 184cm lengths (with a 192cm option also listed), it carries turn radii of 24m to 26m depending on length, and a rocker/camber/rocker profile that encourages surfy, pivoting turns without sacrificing edge hold on hardpack. The core combines karuba and poplar wood for a balance of lightness and structural integrity, while a laminate of flax carbon superlight fibers and cork damplifiers works to reduce vibration and chatter at speed. ABS sidewalls underfoot, built using Double Sidewall Technology with recycled materials, sharpen edge precision on tracked-out or firm snow. Sandwich construction throughout adds durability and a precise, responsive feel. The twin-tip tail opens up freestyle options on big-mountain terrain. Claimed pair weight for the 178cm is approximately 3,660g, and the ski carries a limited two-year manufacturer warranty.

What people are saying
Reviewers consistently praise the Salomon QST X as an exceptional deep-snow powder ski, highlighting its impressive float, nimble and surfy feel, and surprisingly damp, stable ride given its lightweight build. The pronounced rocker profile and long 25m turn radius make it easy to pivot, slash, and smear through pillows, trees, and tight backcountry terrain. Its karuba/poplar core with flax and carbon fibers keeps weight manageable enough for touring. The most common criticism is that the ski feels narrow and somewhat lifeless compared to true 120mm-plus powder skis, leaving some skiers who expected a wider, more confidence-inspiring charger disappointed. A few users also note that mount point placement is critical, as the ski can feel reluctant to turn until dialed in correctly. It is firmly an advanced to expert, powder-specific tool rather than a versatile all-mountain ski.
