Strengths:
A skid that is easily skinned from the first cutting edge, good piste performance almost impossible to not edge. The waistcoat is not a wire mesh, which may feel a little bit more secure. Smart binding system that is easy to change after shawl length. If you want to trim a little, you can rear or rear mount as you move them separately.

Weaknesses:
In a pist of these measures, it should give better response, it follows well but nothing slides out of the turn. Odd black back is ok but no real bet. In puckles, you would like to control the top which is unbelievable. (Maybe not that strange with that cut)

Summary:
A ski for the entire mountain according to the manufacturer, which I doubt, I think a middle-aged rider who drives a lot of pistons and turns outside at some point can feel safe on this ski. The price about 7000: - should discourage a fairly mediocre ski which draws the rating down. I have tested many who are better in this price range. In addition, is this a better quality? Thinking about earlier Salomon models that after a season lose weight and become soft. Score strong 3rd Could have been 4th in a lower price range.
I drive between 25-30 ski days / year
