The Salomon S/Max 8 is a men’s piste ski built for carving on groomed slopes with a focus on comfort and control. It’s designed for skiers who enjoy consistent edge grip and a smooth ride from top to bottom.
In 165 cm length, these skis feature a 14 m radius that strikes a balance between agility and stability, making it easier to link turns without feeling overly demanding. The 120/72/105 mm sidecut gives you both the grip for sharper arcs and the ease to pivot when you want to change direction quickly. At 1 615 g per ski, they remain light enough to feel lively underfoot, and the included Salomon M10 GW bindings are compatible with GripWalk soles for a secure, comfortable connection to your boots.
The turning radius refers to the size of the circle the ski naturally wants to carve—14 m means the S/Max 8 responds well to both medium and long turns. Sidecut dimensions (tip/waist/tail) determine how easily the ski enters a turn and how well it holds an edge: wider tips and tails add stability, while the narrower waist lets you initiate turns with less effort. The M10 GW binding uses a wide platform to improve power transfer and accommodates GripWalk boot soles for better walkability off the slopes.
