With a playful shape and balanced flex pattern, the 106 is a dream when it comes to surfing through fresh snow and blasting through crud. A pillow popping, edge gripping, smear master in all conditions and terrain, the QST 106 is truly in a league of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe QST 106’s intuitiveness and well-roundedness truly make it one that almost everyone that gets on it absolutely loves its capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdvanced to expert skiers who seek a versatile freeride ski that is quick, maneuverable, and stable with a surfy and playful feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA full poplar woodcore is used in the QST 106 with a fairly thick core profile to provide maximum energy and pop while also granting stability and power to the ski without making it unforgiving. A C\/FX laminate running the length of the ski uses carbon and flax to add energy to the ski while also damping vibrations for a smooth and springy feel. Cork Damplifiers are inserted into the tips and tails of the ski to provide further vibration damping during high-speed descents through variable snow. Finally, Double Sidewall Technology is used underfoot to produce immediate power transfer and stability underfoot for a planted and confident experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe QST 106 does not have any metal in it so there is a limit to their torsional stiffness and edge grip on firmer snows. There is considerable rocker in the tips and tails which can make them feel fairly loose on firm snow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkis true to size.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salomon","offers":[{"title":"165","offer_id":48316703965480,"sku":"L47606700|165","price":749.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"173","offer_id":48316703998248,"sku":"L47606700|173","price":749.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"181","offer_id":48316704031016,"sku":"L47606700|181","price":749.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"189","offer_id":48316704063784,"sku":"L47606700|189","price":749.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"157","offer_id":49814638461224,"sku":"L47606700|157","price":749.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2025-salomon-qst-106-skis-l47606700-l47606700.jpg?v=1770760169","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2025-salomon-qst-106-skis-l47606700","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
