When Cody Townsend calls the Salomon El Dictator Ski 'teenager-at-a-strip-club stiff,' you can be sure it's no noodle. He ought to know, because he and cult freeski legend Kaj Zackrisson designed it to be. Their goal was a big-mountain expert's dream ski: big, fast, and burly, but incorporating all the recent design innovations that make powder skiing a pleasure, not a chore. The result is El Dictator, a flat-tailed, wood-cored charger with just enough tip rocker to pull you up from the depths of a 60-footer's bombhole. In a market trending toward forgiveness and all-mountain versatility, few skis stand apart to represent the old school. This is one of them.
- Double Monocoque construction adds a second cap layer for strength and exceptional edge hold
- Full wood core for stable, predictable performance at any speed
- Total Edge Reinforcement adds a layer of fiberglass directly on the edges for durability
- Pulse Pad elastomer layer reduces shock and vibration
- 300mm Tip Rocker aids flotation and prevents deflection in variable, choppy snow
Quote by Cody- Considering I've spent the last two years testing, designing and skiing on this ski, I'll just add that the textual review hit the nail on the head. The El Dictator is the ski designed to ski to go faster, stomp bigger airs and generally charge harder through any and all conditions. It's by far my favorite ski I've ever skied on.
