Salomon is bringing back the Stance 102 for another year of hard charging, all mountain fun. For advanced to expert skiers that want to play everywhere from fast groomers to deep tree lines, the Stance 102 is an excellent place to start looking. A poplar wood core provides a playful and poppy ride, while the surrounding two layers of titanal offer stability and edge hold that truly turn the Stance 102 into a ski that can perform in virtually any conditions. At a 102mm waist this is the widest ski in the Stance line and it proves it can tackle all but the deepest days, aided by generous tip and tail rocker in addition to the 134mm tip. With all these big numbers you might be wondering, “can a ski this wide actually perform on hard pack days?” The answer is a resounding yes. The rocker profile that offers great float in soft snow also does a lot to provide easy entry and exit while turning, making the Stance 102 feel more nimble than other skis in the category. From hard and fast East coast groomers to the steep and deep couloirs of the West, advanced to expert skiers will find a new friend in the Stance 102.
