Who would love these

The Salomon QST 98 Skis are ideal for intermediate to expert skiers who crave versatility and adventure. They're a great daily driver for all terrains and conditions. These skis are designed for those who want to push their limits and explore the mountain in all its glory.

Why I recommend these

Versatile all-mountain and all conditions
Lightweight yet stable
Handles technical terrain with ease

Expert verdict

The Salomon QST 98 Skis are a fantastic choice for those who love versatility on the slopes. With a 98mm waist, these skis are perfect for tackling everything from groomers to powder. The C/FX Carbon-Flax fiber and Cork Damplifier tips and tails make them lightweight yet stable, ensuring smooth rides even on challenging terrains. I love how they handle tight trees and rock-infested steeps with ease, and they're even a great hybrid backcountry option. However, they might not be the best for those who prefer strictly groomed runs. Overall, if you're looking for a playful yet powerful all-mountain ski, the QST 98 is a top contender for a true one-ski quiver.

The QST is a really solid intermediate ski that does a bit of everything! They are quick in the turn and hold their edge well, which allows the rider to focus on improving their agility and their carving.

Bryant Leech tested this product
This ski is one that will work well for a large range of skiers. It fits a nice sweet spot of being both fairly strong and maintaining a trim weight. This would be an excellent ski to think about as a 50/50 do-everything kinda ski with something like a Salomon shift. This ski trends towards soft snow performance in the... Read more
Ideal for
  • Has a good amount of stability for the weight
  • Great for soft snow
  • Really well rounded for most conditions
Not ideal for
  • There are better skis for speed
  • Can get knocked around a bit in choppier snow
  • Can be tough if encountering ice often

Good ski for a season

Originally posted at www.salomon.com on Feb 19, 2024
Very Gould looking high performance ski, however it built to last maybe one season. Half way trough this season with about 6 days of ski all edges chipped , may not effect the performance but already look older than my old skis after 10 years

Faster than I expected!

I purchased the Solomon QST 98 183 last month through Solomon.com. I was a little nervous purchasing online without seeing them but I have no regrets. They are the best skis that I have ever owned for resort skiing. I've had to tell myself to slow down several times. Amazing control under high speeds and superb carving abilities. I'm so happy that I purchased these. I also purchased the Salomon Warden MNC 13 ski bindings to go with. Am combo.

We started looking at a new ski set starting last year and here we are a year later and I have my gear on the way. Luke was able to guide me through sizing new boots, answer all my questions, and recommend just what I needed. Finally going to be back on my own skis this year, sooo excited! Thanks Luke

Spencer was so helpful and kind to me. As a first time rider I was very nervous about getting the right gear that would fit me and be good for me as a beginner. Without hesitation Spencer has sent me a curated list that I completely loved and agreed with. All of his recommendations fit my criteria perfectly and when I asked for some else or something different he got it to me within a matter of seconds. I would recommend Spencer to literally anyone. Fast, knowledgeable, and kind. Absolutely loved him and makes me want to get out there even more!! 100/10

I have been conversing with Ken for over a year he would curate me a set up and I’d just ghost him. Well today I finally made the purchase and I feel confident he helped me choose the correct set up for my specific needs, and challenges. Plus he always recommended cost effective choices without the helmet my set up would have been under $600 which is killer because I got suckered into a blemed demo board 2 yrs ago that I paid $550 for just the board. Thank you Ken! I should be a pro soon if not it’s his fault! ;)

Really appreciated Taylor's willingness to listen and learn my ride style/life style to recommend a board that would suit me for this season of life. I've ridden rental boards for years and it was time to commit to my own rig. He had first hand experience on many of the boards I was considering and every bit of advice helped steer me into what I think will be the best board for me. Stoked for it to arrive and get it out on the mountain! Thanks for everything, Taylor!

This is my first board purchase and I had done a lot of research but making the final decision was daunting. Scott was super helpful, understood what would work for my skill level, and I'm suuuuper excited about what I ended up getting. It wasn't what I had in my cart initially but he gave great recommendations with lots of options. Can't wait to get on the mountain!!
