Salomon X Wing Tornado TI (2009)
The quick-pivoting Tornado made crisp short turns at medium speeds and was very easy to steer.
Props
The forgiving flex won't overpower lightweight skiers.
Gripes
It was difficult to keep this ski interested in long turns-it tended to waver and squirrel about as speed increased.
Tester's Take
"Highly maneuverable. Perfect for fall-line skiers and tight spots." -David Currier
PRICE (MSRP): $1300.00
