Replacing the 24 Hours Powerline, the 24 Max sits at the top end of Salomon’s longer turning piste carving skis. Massively stable at speed, the 24 Max loves medium to long turns and high speeds.

Great for :

just made for high speed carving on groomed piste

Not so great for :

not designed for softer or deeper snow

Target ability level :

Ideal for a strong skier into high speed carvng and longer turns, but who likes to be able to mix things up a bit as well, carves like a race ski and powers through a variety of conditions, but a lot less tiring and easier to handle so more suitable for day-long general use.

Powerline Titanium active dampening system wraps a titanium bar which strengthens the ski longitudinally in a rubber sheath and combines with Pulse Pad inserts to absorb vibrations and give strong ski/snow contact and grip. Double Ti laminates also improve piste performance by strengthening the ski’s torsion for immediate reaction and control.

Salomon’s shortest and lowest tip-only Carve Rocker makes the tip a bit easier to control while leaving maximum effective edge and full length camber for grip, drive and edge hold on hard snow for high speed carving. The semi-twin tip at first glance seems a bit odd for this kind of ski but it does make the tail more versatile and allow you to do more than just carve.
