Overview
Salomons S/Force 7 is the ideal choice for intermediates who want a piste ski that will cruise round all day with smooth carves and easy handling. The shape makes turning effortless and the width ensures stability even when the snow isnt perfect. Its a ski great to relax on but also to push your skills and mix up the turn shapes, thanks to its surprising grip and just how comfortable it is at speed.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type even though it has some width to it, the S/Force 7 is definitely a ski for the marked trails. Its probably happiest lapping blue and red runs all day, but that doesnt mean it cant deal with trickier blacks either.Skier TypePiste skiers who want an easy but fun to use cruiser. Itll suit intermediates up to lighter weight advanced skiers who dont want a powerful ski. But this isnt some noodly beginner ski. Faster speeds arent an issue as long as you dont hit warp speed, and the level of control is remarkable for the price.OverviewShapeThe whole S/Force range has a deep sidecut with an obvious curve. The widest sections are right towards the tip and the tail, giving it excellent grip with a long effective edge. The lengthy nose makes for smooth turn entry and predictable steering, capable of easily switching between shapes. The tail is blunted and wide, helping it hold a turn for clean, precise carves.RockerTip rocker provides the optimum balance between terrain absorption and stability, so you can carve through all snow conditions with confidence. The rocker improves turn initiation and helps with steering in tricker snow; the camber ensures grip and response.CoreA poplar woodcore offers stability, liveliness and forgiveness while ensuring good ski-to-snow contact. Considering the price and performance level, the rebound this creates is impressive, even at faster speeds.ConstructionSemi Sandwich Sidewall is the best of both. The cap at the tip and tails reduces the swing weight, adds durability and assists with starting and completing turns due to its forgiveness. The sidewall underfoot improves the precision and the grip on firmer snow.Key FeatureseB testers comments: Steve (Buying Team) A very pleasant surprise, it has more grip than I expected and the intuitive handling encourages the skier to get involved. But not a hard ski to use at all.Technical SpecificationsSize (cm)Tip Width (mm)Waist Width (mm)Tail Width (mm)Radius (m)Weight (g)1671247610814188017512576108151955General InformationSkier Ability: Novice/Intermediate/AdvancedTerrain Type: PisteRocker: Tip RockerRadius: MediumBase: SinteredBindings: Integrated, M11 GWDIN: 3.5 - 11Construction: Semi SidewallCore: WoodDemo: YesSizing Description: Chin to nose height is ideal for quick responses and easy handling.
