2007/2008 THE MOUNTAIN SALOMON LIVES ON THE MOUNTAIN, ON THE FRONT SIDE AND ON THE BACK SIDE, BOTH ON THE TOP AND AT THE BOTTOM, IN THE SUN AND IN THE RAIN, IN THE WIND AND IN THE SNOW, SALOMON LIVES THERE IN THE WINTER, IN THE SPRING, IN THE SUMMER AND THE FALL. THE MOUNTAIN IS WHERE WE LIVE, THE MOUNTAIN IS WHAT WE DO. For the 2007-2008 Season, we’ve examined every aspect of the alpine range. We’ve fine-tuned the All Mountain segment, creating more models with more versatility. We’ve rounded out our Freeski category, building on our industry leading Freestyle range and incorporating two big mountain rides to tackle the backcountry effortlessly. Rather than settle for being the number one boot manufacturer in the industry, we re-tooled our entire line to create the most comprehensive range of boots to fit every performance need and foot size. With new additions to the binding line, we’ve added more control and more durability to the already world-renowned line-up. We’ve revamped the women’s range for more performance, more comfort and more style than ever before. We didn’t “shrink it and pink it.” We made it for you. Welcome to Salomon’s 2007-08 collection. Enjoy. SKI CONSTRUCTION MONOCOQUE & CORE MONOCOQUE Specifies the practice Monocoque Composite Construction perfectly adapted to the FREESKI practices Lightness: maneuvrability, rebound CORE Dynamic qualities: direct transmission to the edge, reactivity Defines the power of the engine Full Woodcore Core adapted to demanding skiers who look for performance without concession. Wood: direct transmission, precision Isocell Woodcore Core adapted to expert skiers who look for performance with control. Isocell: aeronautic technology, smooth, dampening Wood: direct transmission, precision Isocell Woodcore Light Core adapted for lighter skiers with no compromise on performance. Groove: lightness Wood: direct transmission Isocell Titallium Core adapted to athletic skiers who look for performance and comfort. Groove: lightness Titallium: direct transmission Isocell Complex Core adapted to sporty skiers who look for sensation with control. Isocell: aeronautic technology, smooth, dampening Foam complex: reactivity, rebound SKI CONSTRUCTION PULSE PAD, SPACEFRAME & LAYERS PULSE PAD 3D SANDWICH MADE OF 2 THERMOPLASTIC LAYER AND ELASTOMER CORE Smoother ride & improved ski behavior. A smoother & softer ski/snow contact without any energy loss in transmission. Acts as a shock absorber & damper. Improves ski’s presence from tip to tail & pressure transmission to edges. Favors & improves the shearing strain of layers (ski’s structure) over the edges. SPACEFRAME THE RIGHT AMOUNT... Forms follows function OF THE RIGHT MATERIEL... IN THE RIGHT PLACE. Torsion and flexion are crucial, SPACEFRAME is the solution. LAYERS Adjust ski behavior A wide range of different technical materials give us the possibility to tune the torsion and the flex of our ski depending on the practice. LONGITUDINAL LAYERS: Reactivity, rebound TRANSVERSAL LAYERS: aeronautic technology, smooth, dampening DIAGOTEX: diagonal layer DIFFERENT MIX: Combined layers for specific properties SKI CONSTRUCTION ROCKER TECHNOLOGY, EDGES, BASE ROCKER TECHNOLOGY A revolutionary shape: Patented in-mold bowed tip for instant floatation in powder “It never goes below the surface of the snow!” Chris Davenport EDGES Wider edges for greater durability and improved shock resistance Total edge reinforcement: a fiber reinforcement applied directly to the ski edges increases edge stiffness, improves edge durability and increases edgegrip BASE PTEX 4000 is an extremely high molecular density base with graphite that creates extremely fast bases with excellent wax absorption and great abrasion resistance PTEX 2000 is a high molecular density base for fast bases, good wax absorption and certified abrasion resistance PTEX 1840 has a regular molecular density base with excellent gliding characteristics with super-low maintenance needs.
