What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I took the Outside 82 Grip Ski into a stretch of tight trees after a fresh snowfall and the rocker profile made breaking trail feel almost effortless. The full steel edges gave me real confidence on an icy traverse I hit on the way back out."The Outside 82 Grip Ski from Salomon is built for the days when the plan is to go further into the backcountry, not stick to a groomed loop. This is a ski for rolling terrain and deep snow, the wide 82mm tip and Outside Rocker profile working together to keep you floating through powder while still holding a line when the pitch steepens. It's the kind of ski that makes breaking trail through tight trees feel like part of the fun rather than the price of admission. Full steel edges carry the load when conditions turn crusty, icy, or off camber, giving the confidence to descend with intent rather than just survive the way down. A reinforced wood core keeps things durable without turning punishing underfoot, and the included BC Outside binding means the setup is ready to go right out of the box for skiers looking to push past a standard touring setup.
