Salomon QST 98 2025 Ski Review

aussieskier.co...
Re-designed from the mega popular QST 99, the new Salomon QST 98 is a more playfully designed all mountain ski. The new design takes a ton of inspiration from the QST 106 and now features a healthy amount of tip and tail rocker to give the ski tons of float in deeper snow.
From a construction point of view, the QST 98 still sports all of the techy materials of the rest of the QST range. Double sidewalls transmit power to your edges while cork Damplifier and C/FX keep things stable and predictable regardless of conditions

The 2023 QST 98s were by far the coolest design I think

I wonder why ski reviewers don´t try their skis tougher. I am alwyas looking forward to see the reviewer in a steep couloir and in a super icy piste, and in a hard packed mogul field and on a heavy snow crust. But no no. Sun, powder, soft snow and sliding in the piste are their choice of test tracks. The rest is all words.

You realize most people ski the terrain you just mentioned. I own this ski and it's not an extreme ski for those conditions you want. For what you mentioned on the harder conditions you want some metal in your ski. This is for softer snow / trees and sure some steeper terrain but you aren't bombing of 30ft drops with these. They are too soft.

Just an FYI…when you demo a ski, you are on a time limit, so you basically get one or two runs. You don’t really have a lot of choices, you get what’s quick and easily available.

No comment hahahah.

Actually quite nice! Maybe more divisive, but I'm sure it will sell just fine. I also like the orange one!
