REI (2009)

Hard-charging, big-mountain skiers will dominate the slopes with the fun and lively Salomon Lord skis.

  • Full-wood core delivers direct transmission of power with precision and efficiency; designed for demanding skiers who require high performance
  • Monocoque construction uses a single-layer cap design to create excellent response and high maneuverability
  • Edgy Monocoque offers precise edge grip and efficient energy transfer from skier to snow for pulling off freeski maneuvers
  • Thermoplastic/elastomer Pulse Pads placed over the edges absorb vibrations, resulting in a smooth ride with consistent ski-to-snow contact in tip and tail
  • Rocker technology features a progressive inverse camber that excels in soft snow and ensures stable performance on hardpack
  • Upward curvature, beginning 210mm back from tip, helps skis float high in the deep stuff; standard camber underfoot and in tail promotes stability and grip on groomers
  • Semi twin-tip tail lets you ride backward if needed and stick the occasional switch landing
  • Strong polyethylene fiber threaded between the edges of the skis increases edge strength by 25% to withstand big impacts in the park and pipe
  • Fiber reinforcement laid directly on the edges adds torsional rigidity and improves edge durability
  • High-density P-tex 4000 graphite base absorbs wax well, glides effortlessly over snow and offers high abrasion resistance

Lord of the Skis

Rating:*****

I have last year's (2008-09) model, skied on them all winter and cannot find one thing to complain about. Stable on groomers (minimal chattering), able to dig your tips in the bumps, floats well enough for my needs on powder with the 87mm underfoot waist, and the raised tail tip makes riding and landing switch in the park a piece of cake, and it also has more all-mountain and all-condition control than a regular twin-tip ski. I paired my 177cm Lords with the Marker Griffon Binding, and I have never skied a better setup in my life. If you are looking for a ski that can do everything, this is the best you will find.

The Best Day Ever

Rating:****
First powder day without these easy riders was the worst. Second day with even more powder, I demo'd these lords at 177cm and I floated thru the fluff, carved with good hold where I needed to and plowed right thru the crud with rock solid stability wherever it was. Wow, what an epiphany! I extended my demo time to three days. the best three days ever.

Great Skis

Rating:*****
These skis are great for everything. Used em in the park in Colorado and there really light so there good for kickers and pretty good on rails. Also great flotation in the pow in Whistler BC. All around sick skis!
Joey at Evogear (2009) on 06/11/2009

same but better

Rating:*****

the Lord comes back this year with cooler graphics. the other change is that its made in Austria now, which gives it a slightly different feel, i think it stiffer torsionally.
