The Salomon S/Max 10 XT is an all-mountain test ski sold with Mi12 GW bindings. Geared toward riders who want to explore varied terrain—from groomed runs to softer snow—these skis offer a straightforward way to gauge the S/Max line without committing to a full-priced model.
At 163 cm, the 14 m radius strikes a balance between nimble short turns and stability through longer arcs. The 127/76/107 sidecut gives firm edge hold on hardpack while the wider tip and tail help keep you afloat in softer conditions. Salomon’s Mi12 GW bindings accommodate GripWalk-soled boots, providing reliable retention on descents and a user-friendly walk mode for lift lines or brief hikes. Each ski weighs 2,010 g, lending a solid feel underfoot that helps dampen chatter when you pick up speed.
