The narrowest ski in Salomon's women's Stance line, the Salomon Stance 80 W leans frontside while keeping enough versatility to wander off the groomers. A full-length poplar wood core, a single sheet of titanal with carbon worked into the tip and tail, and an all-mountain rocker profile combine for a lively but damp feel that grips firm snow and stays calm when things get choppy. It's an easy step up from rental skis for high-beginner and intermediate women looking to build toward stronger, more confident turns.
