Salomon QST Lumen 98 | 2024

Here’s the thing with Salomon’s QST Lumen 98: It’s incredibly approachable for the average skier and unexpectedly fun and versatile—no matter the rider’s skill, style or the terrain. A modern twin rocker shape provides effortless and fast turning capabilities, while a 98-mm waist is wide enough to enjoy most days on the mountain. From freshly groomed corduroy to leftover bumps, steep trees and even a few side hits, the QST Lumen 98 shines in almost every scenario. Former Crested Butte ski patroller Leslie Resnick describes the QST Lumen 98 as “effortless edge-to-edge and so playful.” Beloved tester and Jackson local Tami Razinger adds that “it carves like a MF and reacts quickly to a change of direction.” Double sidewalls ease any apprehension on edge, while cork inserts improve stability when the ride gets rough. Ladies looking for a mighty all-mountain slayer, the search is over.
