Choose your challenge with the Salomon XW Fury Alpine Ski with Z14 Bindings. Intermediate to advanced skiers who ride every part of the mountain will find this X-Wing the ideal tool for the job. Wide dimensions give you the platform to float in the pow, while a deep sidecut and carbon reinforcement give the XW Fury power to slice and dice the hardpack. Salomon's Spaceframe topsheet directs power straight from your boots into the snow, which lends this fat ski the power to break through crud. When you start going a little too fast, Salomon's Pulse Pad construction, an elastomer core sandwiched between two layers of thermoplastic, absorbs unwanted vibration to keep you under control. The Pulse Pad also helps improve ski feel and power transmission to the edges. The included Salomon 914 bindings feature DIN adjustment of 6 through 14, catering to the needs of everyone from progressing intermediate to expert skiers.
Bottom Line: Step into the Salomon Fury Alpine Skis with 914 Bindings and call the entire mountain home.
I've been skiing on these for 2 seasons now and have to say that they are perfect for all your average all mountain day. If you love speed then these will take you there as they are very fast. Today I skied with them in about 3-4 inches of pow and felt like they were made for this. I have also skied with them in 20+ inches of pow and know that they were never designed for this. You have to work super hard at always leaning back or else your screwed. So that being said, they will give you 100% at everything except 12 inch plus powder.
these boards absolutely rip. if you like a high performance ski, not some noodle, then you'll like the fury. they slice through ice as well as crude. very stable at speed, awesome on groomers. full wood core, definitely a race inspired ski, highly recommended.
Yes, great performance, but tended to sink a bit in the Tahoe waist deep in Killibrew. Should've gotten the a size or two bigger considering I'm 5'11" 180lbs. But, the nose tends to really want to sink in when short. I got the last years 172cm, great setup with the bindings(will go down in price big time most likely near spring time)but a little chatery at high speeds, once again too short! Pretty decent in the double diamond bumps(hence my choice for the shorter size)but the nose tends to thrash a bit and forgiving on hardpack drop-ins but will fire you down the face if backseat landing without prior knowledge ha ha. Held great on the spring steeps, easy crud jump turns and very strong lams and base :) Bindings are super! If I was going to buy these again I would buy the 184's and use them on the bumps when they came and on-piste pow. Great forgiving resort ski. Not a "one quiver ski". I'm moving to a twin tip possibly the Line Prophet 100 186cm.
