Salomon S/MAX 12 – Sporty Performance for Maximum Versatility on the Piste

The Salomon S/MAX 12 is a high-performance piste ski for skiers who don’t want to be limited to a single turn radius. Whether you prefer short, quick turns, dynamic medium-radius carving or long, sweeping turns, the S/MAX 12 gives you the agility and precision to adapt your skiing to the terrain and conditions.

Combining quick edge-to-edge performance, strong edge grip and direct power transmission, it is a versatile ski for sporty skiers who want to vary their skiing and get the most out of every piste.

What makes the Salomon S/MAX 12 special?

The biggest strength of the S/MAX 12 is its versatility combined with sporty performance. Rather than being designed around one specific turn radius, it allows you to change your skiing whenever you want. You can make short, dynamic turns, open up the radius for medium carving turns or lay down long, fast arcs across the piste.

The combination of Double Ti reinforcement and Full Sandwich Sidewalls provides the precision, stability and edge grip needed for sporty skiing. The Poplar woodcore delivers a lively feel and direct snow contact, while the slalom-inspired Edge Amplifier construction enhances responsiveness and agility.

The result is a ski that feels quick and agile when you need fast edge changes, yet stable and powerful enough for larger turns and higher speeds. This combination makes the S/MAX 12 particularly appealing to skiers who don’t want to be restricted to one specific style of skiing.
