Intermediate to advanced skiers love the Salomon X-Drive 8.0 Ti for hitting the groomers at various speeds. A Wood Core with a Double Titanium Layer gives you fantastic stability and rebound with a very lively feeling for making short to medium radius turns. Salomon's All Terrain Rocker 2.0 has a rockered tip to initiate turns quickly, camber underfoot will provide you with rebound and a small amount of rocker in the tail releases you out of turns effortlessly. The 8.0 Ti has a Semi-Sandwich Construction with a vertical sidewall underneath the binding platform that gives you solid edge hold on firm snow with a Monocoque Cap Construction in the tips and tails to make the ski easy to maneuver. Salomon's X-Chassis uses a Carbon/Polyamide Diagonal Reinforcement woven over the middle of the ski to increase the torsional strength and make the ski more responsive, especially at higher speeds. To round out this total package, Salomon has added the RKS (Rocker Stabilizer) to increase the precision of the ski and reduce the chances of the tip wobbling when you lay them flat and really start moving. If you are looking for a stable and easy to maneuver ski that will cave beautiful arcs down the groomers the Salomon X-Drive 8.0 Ti will not disappoint you.
