The Salomon Stance 96 is an all-mountain powerhouse ski that gives advanced skiers a smooth, reliable ride in a variety of conditions. Reinforced with two layers of titanal and carbon, the Stance 96 is stiff and responsive and holds up extremely well to hard, fast skiing. With full sidewalls, stiff design, and enough width to handle some powder and plow through chopped up snow, this ski can really lay over on edge and carve trenches in the groomers.
Key Features:
- Poplar Wood Core – Salomon builds the Stance 96 around a full Poplar wood core to add liveliness and energy to the ski.
- Carbon and Flax – Salomon uses their signature C/FX material to add more energy and rebound to the skis. This helps balance the stiffness from the metal and create a precise yet maneuverable ski.
- Double Titanal – Two full layers of Titanal are added through the ski to dramatically increase stiffness, stability at speed, and the precision of the skis. This further improves their carving potential and performance on hard snow.
- Full Sandwich Sidewalls – Full-length sandwich sidewalls are used to maximize edge grip and create a really smooth carving experience for the skier. This also helps keep the skis strong and long lasting.

I picked up a pair of these during the 21-22' season, mostly as a frontside ski out west when conditions were firm. They excel in high-speed, big turns and holding a line through variable or choppy snow thanks to the double layer of titanal in the construction. On the occasional day, I had these, and there was powder. They floated... Read more

Great skis!
Posted on Dec 28, 2023I had been off of skis for a couple of years and purchased these to get back on the slopes. I have felt very comfortable on these and have confidence to ski in many different conditions and types of terrain!

Best customer service ever!!
5 /5
I was in the process of picking out some ski equipment and I got matched with Gary. He was amazing answered every question I had and gave me his opinion on if I was looking into something that was not going to be right for me. He was beyond knowledgeable and it felt like I could come to him with anything. Even when I took a few days to do some more research and make sure I wanted to buy the things that were in my cart he would check in often to make sure I had now other questions. Absolutely top tier easily the best customer service I have ever had when making a big purchase like this.

I started with spencer in mid to early january and told him that i wouldnt be able to make an actual purchase until mid february. He constantly gave me updates on item availability and continuously found me new items through the entire month that catered to my preferences as i gave them to him. He might just be the best customer service ive ever experienced to date with anything.

Ethan was responsive and very helpful in getting me started with some gear. Having some very limited knowledge in skiing, Ethan was able to provide some great suggestions on narrowing down equipment given my budget and preferred style. He helped me save a ton of time, rather than doing hours of research trying to guess on what would suit me best. With his knowledge I have confidence that I was able to make a smart purchase that I will not regret.

Hands down the BEST experience i have ever had buying outdoor gear! Edward was extremely knowledgable, listened to what i needed and provided great suggestions. Had some good laughs and witty banter and it was like going shopping with a best friend who was an expert to point me to all the best gear and deals. Honestly i've never met a better salesperson who was so focused on helping me get out and enjoy the slopes. 1000 out of 10.
