Anyone know anything about these?

I hired some recently and they were great. I'm now trying to track down a
supplier, but they aren't even mentioned on Salomon's own website. Cant find
any suppliers for them, and the only place I've seen them was in the hire
shop but they didnj't have my sizr for sale.

Help please - I must get a pair of these incredible skis!!


X-wing? X-WING? Never heard of such a thing.

Might you mean X-Scream? Even there, you would need
to know the flavor. This "name" has been around for
a lot of years now and not always on the same skis.

I have, for instance, a pair of "X-Scream P" no
vibration dampener. Nothing extra, just a lovely
ski.

I also have a pair of "'Scream 1080's" which are
early twin-tip skis. IIRC, the earliest X-Screams
came with the silly putty vibration dampers on
tip and tail. I haven't seen these lately but I
have seen many "Pilot" versions with integral
bindings. And I could go on.

If you aren't convinced, Google on "Salomon x-wing"
and see what you get. There are several forums which
have user reviews of various skis available. If you
don't find your ski here, I'll bet it doesn't exist
and you should start looking at X-Screams.
