Ski review Salomon Stance 96

At the 2022/2023 WorldSkitest the skis in the category „Freeride under 100mm“ were closely evaluated at Kals. Tester’s opinion: "If these models were only tested on the slope, the "Stance 96 N" would have left the competition behind. The incredible ratings for long turns and running smoothness show that you can really speed up with this ski. Are you looking for a freerider that you ski for several days? Then the "Salomon" is exactly the right freerider for you."
