The Salomon S/max X9 Ti is a carving ski built for riders who enjoy laying down precise turns on groomed slopes. It comes equipped with the Z11 Walk binding, giving you both solid release performance and a walk mode for added mobility off the chairlift.
At 175 cm, this ski has a 16 m turn radius and a 121–73–104 mm sidecut, a combination that strikes a balance between responsive edge-to-edge transitions and stability at speed. The wider tip and tail help you initiate turns smoothly, while the narrower waist underfoot keeps things lively on firm snow. The Z11 Walk binding adds versatility by letting you switch into a freer walk setting when you need to hike or traverse.
Sidecut describes the ski’s hourglass shapewider at the tip and tail, narrower in the middlewhich naturally guides it into an arc when you tip it on edge. The turn radius tells you how tight that arc will be: a 16 m radius means the ski is tuned for relatively quick, agile turns without feeling nervous underfoot.
