Developed with input from Chris Davenport, and the Crist Brothers, the new Salomon Sandstorm is the choice for big mountain skiing and big powder days. The XW Sandstorm Skis have a UHMW designed base featuring excellent gliding ability. Salomon uses an Isocell Complex Core (aeronautic technology) in the XW Sandstorm Skis for dampening, reactivity and rebound. The Diatex Metal Layout has optimization of the trnasveral pressure distribution and a shiny aesthetic effect.
