Product Summary

Due to its lighweight construction the Salomon MTN 96 Carbon is easy to handle not only downhill but also during longer ascents. The Salomon MTN 96 Carbon's full retail price is €750. The Ski costs roughly €120 more than the average price of all Backcountry Touring Skis, making it a real premium Ski. This ski is just right for good skiers. Stable but not overpowering.

The ski in details

Engineered so it’s light enough for easy touring, yet wide enough for outstanding free touring, the MTN 96 CARBON moves downhill as effectively as it climbs up.

Combining all the strengths of Salomon’s iconic MTN 95, it has an alpine shape and a more lightweight, carbon construction. Sustainably made, it is an environmentally friendly choice.

Touring efficiency
The lightest wide touring ski Salomon ever made is carbon-reinforced to minimize uphill effort, and leave you with more energy to go beyond your comfort zone on the way down.

Uncompromised descent
Salomon’s exclusive Cork Damplifier is visibly integrated into the tip of the ski. It filters terrain vibrations and creates a more stable ski no matter the snow conditions.

Construction
The MTN skis are made from 30% recycled topsheet materials and 100% recycled base.

Weight: 1390g/pair @ 174cm
