Salomon MTN 96 Carbon Skis 2025

When it comes to pure touring skis, it's always hard to figure out just the right balance to strike. The better they are for the uphill, usually the worse the are on the way down. The Salomon MTN 96 Carbon Skis are here to put your worries to bed, and get your feet on the trail. These ultralight skis are made with long days of skinning in mind. They weigh in at under 1400 grams per ski, and have specialized carbon fittings to make sure your skin clips are never slipping. But don't think of them as some chattery carbon ski. The comfortable 100ish waist width is wide enough to make its way through some questionable backcountry snow, and the Cork Damplifiers keep the ride smooth, even when you're charging hard.
