Product Info
The Salomon MTN Explore 88 Skis are ideal for the dedicated backcountry enthusiast with big plans. Carefully engineered with a focus on weight reduction and skin track efficiency, they're light enough for all but the most extreme days in the high alpine, and the good news is they rock the descent, too. 3D Karuba Full Woodcore construction is paired up with Salomon's patented C/FX Carbon Weave for impressive dampness and stability for their weight class, ensuring that the turns down are worth every drop of sweat expended on the way up.
Product Details
Rocker Type
Tip Rocker – Moderate rocker in the tip with camber underfoot.
Core
3D Karuba Full Woodcore – The pre-shaped 3D full Karuba Woodcore provides stability and control while reducing weight.
Laminates
C/FX Carbon Weave – The patented and exclusive C/FX technology provides superior an unrivaled versatility thanks to the power of carbon and flax, allowing for one of the best performance / weight ratios on the market.
Ti Binding Reinforcement – A titanal insert edge-to-edge underfoot, running throughout the ski, for maximal power and increased hard snow edging.
Koroyd Tip – More float, less flop. Super light honeycomb/Koroyd Tip insert, reinforced with ABS. Less weight at the extremities with increased dampening from Koroyd dramatically increases maneuverability and ease of steering on rockered skis.
Additional Features
Skin Tail Clip – Precut notch in the tail of the ski allows quick, easy and secure attachment of climbing skins.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.
