Product Info
As the 2008 ski season dawns, a new member to Salomon’s family of all-mountain skis is born. The 2008 Salomon Rocker is a highly-evolved powder ski that lives for huge off-piste performance. With a removable swallow tail for maneuverability and built-in rocker for instant planing, the super-fat Salomon Rocker and its generous 127-mm waist is all about the speed. The full-width total composite reinforcement along the edges will take care of any rocks or rails that might get in your way as you’re planing in deep pow, while an upturned forebody helps you accelerate at warp speed. If you’re a deep powder kind of guy, you can’t ask for more fat, fast big mountain action than what the 2008 Salomon Rocker delivers.*

Terrain
Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Powder These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.

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.
