2026 Salomon QST 100 Skis with Tyrolia Attack 14 MN Bindings

The 2027 Salomon QST 100 with Tyrolia Attack 14 MN Bindings takes a fan-favorite design in the QST 98 and fine-tunes it for even better performance across the mountain. With a revamped shape, profile, and construction, this ski brings new levels of versatility, edge grip, and powder surfiness—all while staying intuitive and easy to ski. If you’re chasing a freeride feel with all-mountain range, the QST 100 hits the sweet spot. We paired the ski with the Tyrolia Attack 14 GW because of the Attack’s light weight, reliability, and ease-of-use for all mountain and freeride skiers. Additionally, ample elastic travel and direct power transmission function to ensure these bindings cater perfectly to the needs of demanding freeriders.

Why we like it:

It’s hard not to love a ski with this much range. Whether you’re carving corduroy, wiggling through trees, chasing soft snow stashes, or hot lapping the park, the QST 100 responds with energy and precision. Its big sweet spot makes it forgiving and fun for a variety of skier styles and snow conditions.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers who want a true freeride ski that can handle mixed terrain with confidence. It’s especially good for skiers who venture off-trail into bumps, glades, or bowls but still want something that holds its edge on the way back to the lift.

Highlights:

A nearly full-length poplar wood core forms the lively backbone of the QST 100, while Cork Damplifier inserts in the tip and tail absorb vibrations to enhance stability without adding unnecessary weight. Basalt fibers run throughout the ski to deliver a smooth, powerful ride that rivals metal-laminate skis—but at a fraction of the heft. An updated rocker profile and more refined shape improve both soft snow float and firm snow carving, rounding out a ski that’s playful, precise, and impressively versatile. The Attack 14 GW’s FR PRO3 Toe contains a generous 30 mm of elastic travel. This provides a smooth and confident feel when tracking though variable snow, while also recentering the boot to its neutral position extremely well to keep you locked in, acting almost like a suspension system. The NX FR Heel has even more 16 elastic travel at 16mm, which further aids in preventing the dreaded pre-release. These cammed heel pieces also make stepping into and out of bindings super easy, even in deep snow.

Things to consider:

While the QST 100 is impressively capable, its weight might be a concern for those building a dedicated touring setup. For occasional skinning it’s fine, but if your goal is long days in the backcountry, there are lighter options better suited for that.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These skis run true to size. Skiers looking for tighter maneuverability in trees or bumps may size down slightly without sacrificing performance; those prioritizing float and stability should stick to their usual freeride length.
