The 2027 Salomon Stance 80 W with M10 GW binding and is a women’s-specific frontside package designed to deliver confidence and control for intermediate to advanced skiers. With its accessible flex, touch of Titanal, and versatile rocker profile, it provides a stable, intuitive ride on groomed terrain while leaving room for exploration beyond the corduroy. A comfort-first women's boot for intermediate skiers with wider feet.

Why we like it:

The Stance 80 W blends composure with an easygoing personality. It holds an edge securely when carving yet releases and pivots smoothly, creating a balanced ride that’s approachable without sacrificing performance.

Who it's for:

This package is best for intermediate to more relaxed advanced women skiers who focus primarily on groomers but still want the versatility to handle variable terrain. It’s a great match for East Coast skiers or anyone seeking strong performance on hardpack.

Highlights:

Salomon’s Ti-C Frame combines a poplar wood core with a Single Ti laminate underfoot for edge hold and vibration damping. Carbon inserts in the tip and tail reduce swing weight, making the ski quick and nimble without losing stability. A tapered shape with subtle tip and tail rocker supports smooth initiation and release, while the recycled base and brushed topsheet bring durability and sustainability into the mix. Features include a 102 mm last, adaptive cuff, and a customizable shell with Atomic's heat-moldable Memory Fit technology. The Bronze liner adds warmth and cushion.

Things to consider:

The Stance 80 W is tuned more toward frontside performance. Skiers seeking freeride-style playfulness or deep snow float will want to consider a wider option.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These skis run true to size. Choose shorter for lighter or newer skiers seeking maneuverability, or longer for more stability and edge hold at higher speeds. Fits true to size; roomy 102 mm last is ideal for high-volume feet. Heat molding can fine-tune comfort.
