About this product
The Salomon Escape Outback 68 Posi Flat is a backcountry cross-country ski built for venturing off groomed tracks into more remote terrain. Its dimensions follow a 68mm tip, 60mm waist, and 65mm tail profile, giving it a mild S-Cut sidecut that blends a wider front platform with light carving geometry behind the foot for added control and stability, particularly on descents. A wood core reinforced with plastic and fiberglass wrap keeps the construction solid without excessive weight, and the pair comes in at 2.06 kg (4.54 lbs). Full steel edges provide extra grip when conditions get firm or uneven. The G1 solid base receives a low-pressure stone grind for consistent glide across varied snow surfaces, while the Posigrip embossed pattern on the base delivers waxless kick traction without the need for grip wax. The mid-length geometry further supports stability and maneuverability when navigating off-track terrain. Packed weight for the pair is 2,060 g.

What people are saying
The Salomon Escape Outback 68 Posi Flat is consistently praised by reviewers for its off-trail versatility, with the full-length steel edges, wood core, and waxless Posigrip fishscale base earning strong marks for grip and stability in ungroomed and variable snow conditions. The lightweight build and wider tip shape are noted for providing good float in soft snow. Pricing is widely considered competitive for a metal-edge backcountry ski. The most common criticism is poor efficiency on groomed classic tracks, where the ski underperforms. Some heavier or taller skiers report difficulty achieving adequate grip, citing a stiff flex and pronounced camber that can be hard to compress.
