A wood core, fiberglass reinforcement, and a partial steel edge sit underneath an embossed grip-pattern base, giving the ski enough kick to handle rolling terrain and enough edge to feel secure when the track ends and the conditions get firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 3\/4 steel edge makes a real difference in firm or icy conditions, especially on the descents. The lively, snappy character that comes from running a wood core instead of foam is also a nice surprise on a ski at this price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntermediate skiers and advanced intermediates who tour for fitness or recreation and like the option of stepping off the set track now and then. This is the ski for the rider who isn't chasing race pace but still wants performance, a real edge, and confidence on variable conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSalomon designed the Outpath 60 GRIP around a wood core with fiberglass reinforcement, which gives this touring ski a more lively, responsive feel than the foam-cored entry-level alternatives. The sidecut, roughly 60 millimeters at the tip and 50 underfoot, sits in classic light-touring territory: narrow enough to track well on a set track and wide enough to float in a few inches of fresh on a path or fire road. The embossed grip pattern handles kick across most snow temperatures without the fuss of waxing, while the 3\/4-length steel edges hold a line on icy traverses or refrozen tracks. Underneath, the G1 base is finished with a Performance grind, tuned for the moderate speeds this ski sees, and the build comes pre-mounted and ready to ski straight out of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Outpath 60 GRIP is built for trail and light touring, not for steep, deep backcountry skiing. Skiers planning to spend real time off the trail will want to look at the wider Outpath 65 or the Outside line for more width, more edge, and more float. The 3\/4-length edge is also less coverage than the Outside family's full-length edges, so for genuinely icy steep descents, these are the wrong tool for the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard sizing advice applies: stick with the size closest to your height unless conditions or preferences pull you one way or the other.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salomon","offers":[{"title":"160","offer_id":51759266201896,"sku":"L454444PM|160","price":399.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"175","offer_id":51759266234664,"sku":"L454444PM|175","price":399.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"195","offer_id":51759266267432,"sku":"L454444PM|195","price":399.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2027-salomon-outpath-60-grip-cross-country-skis-w-prolink-bindings-l454444pm-1-l454444pm.jpg?v=1778769540","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2027-salomon-outpath-60-grip-cross-country-skis-w-prolink-bindings-l454444pm","provider":"Ski Essentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
