 The Salomon QST 98 blends freeride playfulness with stability. With carbon/flax reinforcement, a poplar core, and generous rocker, it’s adaptable for everything from backcountry laps to groomer carves.

While not the most lively ski, its mellow personality makes it easy, forgiving, and fun all day long.

Bottom line: A versatile all-mountain ski that delivers smooth, predictable fun wherever the conditions lead.

Ryan Stuart has a ski for every possible condition and a jacket to match. Well maybe not quite, but the magazine’s Technical Editor has more than enough of both and can’t wait to test out whatever is coming next. When he’s not testing skis or writing the buyer’s guides, you can’t find him exploring his bumpy backyard on Vancouver Island. @ryan_adventures
