Salomon started in 1947 and is based in Annecy, France. For years Salomon has been producing skis that call owners back to purchase the newest model from the brand. We speak to many skiers still on Salomon Scream skis, the predecessor to the Hot series, and now the X-Wing series. The newer models provide the same great feel throughout the mountain, only with added width and greater shape, to give you greater float and a quicker turn that will provide confidence on all corners of the mountain.
