Why We Like The MTN 88 Ski
Whether hunting for remote couloirs or navigating long traverses between alpine huts, proper adventure skiing demands rock-solid gear like the MTN 88 Ski to adapt to the mountain’s conditions. Positioned squarely in the middle of Salomon’s touring line, we count on this ski as a reliable do-it-all tool for day-to-day backcountry skiing, or more involved ski mountaineering missions. The 88mm waist is effortless to maneuver on the skintrack, with enough of a platform to seek out soft snow as well.
