Salomon W's Stance Pro 88 Skis 2026

New for 2026, the Salomon Stance W Pro 88 is a high-performance frontside tool for advanced women skiers who demand edge grip, composure, and power across firm snow and mixed terrain. Sitting at 88 mm underfoot with a full camber profile and dual Titanal construction, this ski is designed to hold strong when speeds increase and conditions vary. For skiers who charge from bell to bell and want a precise, directional platform underfoot, the Stance W Pro 88 delivers.

Why we like it:

This ski makes no apologies for its strength. It’s smooth, stout, and stable—giving you the confidence to push harder without the chatter or deflection you often get in lighter builds. It’s the kind of ski that rewards good form and makes fast skiing feel even more fun.

Who it's for:

Confident advanced to expert women skiers who lean into every turn and want a frontside-focused ski with the horsepower to handle firm groomers, chopped-up snow, and even the occasional off-piste detour. Best suited to directional skiers who prioritize grip and speed over playfulness.

Highlights:

The Stance W Pro 88 uses a Karuba/Poplar wood core for a responsive yet stable platform, reinforced with Salomon’s Twin Frame 2 design and Double Ti laminate for a smooth, powerful ride. The 88 mm waist keeps it agile and quick from edge to edge, while the 15% tip rocker and 12% tail rocker offer subtle forgiveness without compromising the locked-in feel of full camber underfoot. A recycled base adds an eco-conscious touch to a build that’s otherwise all business.

Things to consider:

While the Stance W Pro 88 delivers tons of stability and energy, it’s not built for skiers looking to smear or surf their way down the hill. It prefers to be driven, not feathered. If you’re still refining technique or want something more forgiving for variable terrain, a lighter or more rockered option may be a better fit.

Fit & sizing considerations:

This ski runs true to size. Riders seeking maximum maneuverability may size down slightly, while stronger or more aggressive skiers will appreciate staying at their standard length for optimal edge grip and stability at speed.
