Salomon's QST line has cemented its place in the modern skiing lexicon as a byword for all mountain freeride performance. The beating heart of this dynasty is the QST Stella 106 - a do anything, go anywhere ripper with a penchant for soft snow. Its versatile 106mm waist is the perfect set-and-forget width for a West Coast daily driver, and makes for a great powder ski anywhere else. Cork Damplifier inserts in tip and tail keep the ride buttery smooth in variable conditions, and a moderately stiff flex through the tail provides bags of stability at speed, as well as impressive grip on firmer snow. For the perfect quiver-of-one, look no further than the Salomon QST Stella 106 Skis.

The Atomic Hawx Ultra XTD 95 W CT GW Alpine Touring Ski Boots are a "quiver of one" gift for those with low volume feet and narrow ankles and heels. There isn't another boot on the market that matches the close fit of the Hawx Ultra series around the midfoot and ankle, and that proximity to your foot and leg brings with it a new sort of precision in your skiing that has to be experienced to be believed. On top of that, the Hawx Ultra XTD 95 offers exceptional touring capability and a "not to soft, not too stiff" flex that lends itself well to "off the beaten path" skiing - just the sort of thing you're interested in.
Last: 98 mm – A narrow and low volume touring last.
Memory Fit – Advanced heat-fitting technology creates a fully personalized shell, cuff and liner in minutes. The key is Memolink, Atomic's special additive that improves the moldability and stretch of their plastics. Expansion can be up to 6mm forefoot width and up to 10mm ankle width, resulting in a permanent and complete anatomical fit in minutes. See your bootfitter for details.
Women's Specific Cuff – Specifically designed for female skiers, this cuff features wider, more fluted calf areas and a shorter cuff height for a secure, comfortable fit.
Flex: 95 – A medium-stiff flex perfectly suited to strong skiers looking for a balanced feel.
True Flex – This Atomic-exclusive shell material provides the same flex in a wide variety of temperatures so your boot won't feel too stiff in the winter or lose power in the spring.
3D Silver Liner – With touring flex zone
Cuff – Polyurethane
Shell – True Flex Polyurethane
Prolite – Instead of starting with a standard construction and cutting material away to save weight, Prolite does the opposite. It starts with the slimmest possible profile and then builds up reinforcements in key areas where strength is needed - like the Energy Backbone down each boot spine.
Energy Backbone – A reinforced, asymmetric backbone providing extra strength for powerful skiing plus enhanced lateral energy transmission for better edge grip.
