The Salomon Stance 102 21/22 is a mid-fat ski from Salomon’s 2021/22 range, designed to handle a variety of on- and off-piste conditions. With a 102 mm waist, it sits in the sweet spot between carving groomers and floating in softer snow, making it a versatile choice for riders who like to explore different terrain.
Thanks to its 23 m turning radius (at 183 cm), the Stance 102 delivers smooth, arcing turns without feeling twitchy, while the 134/102/102 mm sidecut offers a balanced blend of stability and maneuverability. Weighing in at 2 120 g per ski (183 cm), it maintains enough mass to damp chatter at speed yet stays light enough to handle changes in snow texture. The skis come with a flat mount, leaving you free to choose and fit your preferred bindings.
In simple terms, the 23 m radius means the ski naturally follows a longer, more gradual turn—good for open slopes—while the sidecut dimensions (tip, waist, tail) determine how easily it can initiate and hold those turns.
