The Salomon Distance 80 is a great option for beginner to advanced intermediate skiers looking to get off of rentals and onto their own pair. A Poplar Woodcore keeps the ski lightweight but snappy, as well as a great starting foundation to build around. All Terrain Rocker makes an appearance promoting riding versatility in different snow conditions thanks to the gradual rise in the tip and tail and camber located underfoot. A Semi Sandwich Sidewall gives a nice balance of torsional rigidity and flex for intermediate riders who are still learning to push the limits. Tip and Tail Protector is added for extra durability, perfect for those skiers who aren't afraid to abuse their gear. Start off your season right with the Salomon Distance 80.
