Salomon Rocker 2 (2012)
Tester's Review
It's a powder specialist, to be sure, and testers had to penalize it for lack of versatility. But the Rocker 2 does what it does-surf powder-extremely well, and it was the guys who ski the most powder who were the most excited about it. Salomon drapes a strong structural cap (two layers, edge to edge) over a full wood core, shaves weight at the extremities and rockers the front 40 percent. Hard snow? No thanks. But it was No. 2 for Flotation. "Fat, fun, floaty-my favorite so far and possibly the best Salomon powder ski ever," said Elling.
