The Salomon S/Race GS Rush are very good skis that go fast, Very fast. These skis are actually top-of-the-range piste skis, not Racing as their name may imply.
The flex is unsurprising and very consistent, the tail and tip aren’t too rigid and the entry in and out of turns is natural, fluid.
Turning on the edges is spontaneous and automatic, as soon as you start to glide, they start to accelerate, you need skill and ambition! Their strong points are accessibility/grip/stability.
On compact snow they are super performant and you can enjoy sharp angles no problem, almost racing style. The new plate and ski concept with its direct transfer of energy above the edges must be behind something…
The other positive point is the fact that you don’t have to stay in the same radius (R16), you can modify it and manage your trajectory depending on your desire or needs. The wide long curves are majestic, carving effects magnificent; medium curves are also accessible with proper positioning and if we really want to reduce it even more, then they fight back.
The structure and materials don’t vibrate too much into the legs, which is nice.
The tips do their job well, they stay solid to the ground and don’t slap and make noise like some skis (Dynastar Racing for example).
The Salomon S/Race Rush GS are beautiful skis that go fast in wide turns and listen to expert pilots. Superb.
