We can’t guarantee that the QST 98 will make you ski like Nico Vuignier, but we bet that you’ll love the innovative freeride shape that keeps this ski winning awards year after year. The 98’s full sandwich double sidewalls and cork damplifier create stability in the park and pow, while rocker plus traditional camber make this ski a favorite for all.
