With the Head THE ROD,
fun and quick success to
parallel skiing is easy.
Free from norms and
constraints you can learn
to ski simply and in a
fun way without skimping
on safety and quality.
The full release binding,
the wood core design and
shape make the Head
Salamander a great fun
ski to use anywhere on
the mountain. With an
adjustable binding it is
easy to adjust so the
whole family can join in
on the fun. The bindings
can be adjusted by a
qualified ski technician
to suit ski boot sole
lengths of 263mm - 391mm
(This is the measurement
stamped in mm on the
heel, not the size of
the boots) OUR OPINION
For those interested in
trying ski blades, we
feel these Head blades,
with a traditional wood
core and a full alpine
ski binding with standard
releasing modes, is a
modern spin on the blade
and offers a high degree
of safety in the event of
a fall. The bindings do
add some weight but the
blades are still easy to
carry and pack.

A short length mini
carving skis for those
not wanting a full length
ski, but still wishing
to have a full release
binding. Salomon are well
known in the ski industry
for producing solid
dependable skis that are
powerful and versatile
yet still easy to ski
on. For the 2015 season
they do not disappoint.
They have split their
skis up into different
categories to make things
easier with their All
mountain front side
(piste orientated) skis
falling into their
X-series range, while
the backside range
becoming part of their
Quest category. Still
utilizing their popular
X-Chassis on a number of
skis in their X-series
range this diagonal
carbon reinforcement
placed mid ski adds
torsional stiffness for
great edge grip and
stability, they use this
with RKS rocker
stabilization to really
lock in the tips of the
ski and this offers
really easy turn
initiation. On their
quest range they use many
of these ideas from their
piste side, yet
incorporate the honeycomb
tip to reduce the swing
weight along with utility
rocker for optimum
flotation and control
with excellent terrain
absorption. At 125cm long
these are a cross over of
Blades and standard
skis. Although they
will not offer the edge
hold, stability or float
that you would get from a
standard length, they do
offer a really easy
skiing style and allow
the user to put in quick
tight turns on piste. Ski

length mini carving skis
for those not wanting a
full length ski, but
still wishing to have a
full release binding.
They are also a lot more
stable than the 90cm
Blades and so if you
enjoy skiing blades but
are worried about your
knees then these could be
an ideal option.+ The
Salomon ShortKart at
125cm sits between full
length skis and blades,
giving a bit more rebound
and damping than shorter
blades, and a much
shorter turning radius
too. Is this for me? For
those who think that
skiing shorter skis is
for them, these are the
safer bet over blades.
They have a full release
binding, and with 125cm
length, there is still
some plank to absorb some
shocks from the knees. A
super tight radius allows
for short turns.
