Salomon X-Wing Tornado (2008)
Screaming fun on groomers, and light and surfy off-piste, the Tornados carry tons of energy into medium- and long-radius arcs.
Props
A thin-waisted ski that easily pops to the surface in powder.
Gripes
They aren’t as heavy and damp as most skis. Power up in crud or you can get pushed around.
Tester's Take
"Versatility at its best. Victory!" —Johnny "Drama" Alamo
PRICE (MSRP): $785.00
