All are good/bad in some way. although I prefer Salomon skis + they're an all around ski company so that they have a lot of experience. But hey, to each its own...

LACROIX!

Amazing skis, incredibly durable, light and stylish and ski amazing.

I use a Lacroix Premier, it may be 1500 dollars but it's made from Kevlar, Carbon and titanium.

It really shouldn't be, my first post was sarcastic, along with my second. Although Salomon might have good products (except their park skis, everyone knows they break) they don't have the best customer service. In order to contact the company you basically need to do it through a dealer. For that reason alone Salomon shouldn't even be top 5.

completely opinionated and biased thread, but its worth a look at all the ns'ers opinions...

Personally I've got to go with Icelantic. The skis are SUPER durable, the company uses unique but themed art from Travis Parr for their topsheets (i haven't really seen any other ski company use a yearly theme as well as only one artist for their entire ski line), and the people there are GREAT (i interned with Icelantic this summer)

fuck all u kids that are saying salomon. ARMADA IS THE BEST FREESKI COMPANY OUT THERE RIGHT NOW because from skis to outerwear to hoodies to tshirts to fucking wallets & belts, the quality & design of their products are top notch. And the company is down to earth and really listens to rider feedback in order to improve their products. THE BEST

Surprised there's so much Salomon love, I thought the consensus on NS was they spontaneously combust...but In my opinion ON3P probably the best they're extremely involved with the community and make skis that I've never seen someone complain about.
