The Foil has been the same ski every year that Salomon has made it with the exception of the graphics. A real shame they have discontinued producing this ski.

I picked these skis up cheap off ebay after looking at lot of different skis. I couldnt find a better ALL mountain ski anywhere. I have thrown everything at these skis. Powder, groomers, back-country, trees, even a few cliff hucks. The bases handle rocks surprisingly well and I am very impressed with the ski overall.

But I would say that if you were between the 05-06 foils and these, there’s really no difference, besides the price.

I am good a good skier and like to do 180/360 on small/med jumps. I am not interested in rails or pipes. I spend alot of time on blacks also.

Need advice on any good twin tips with good pop.

yeah these skis are the shiz. they carve, they float, they go backwards, they can even do bumps, and they’re light. the bases are super resistant to scratching as well

this is the best ski I have ever been on, so frustrating they stopped making it and have not come up with an updated version.

These skis are awsome, amazing in the pow, awsome in the park, there light with soft enough tips.  Really a fun ski for general everywhere use.  The only downside is, skiing on the ice can get a bit shady and also on hard cruddy snow, because the tips are soft, these are the two conditions in which you may not have as much control as some skis.  apart from that they are an allround winner, for advanced to medium skier i would say

I have the 2007 foils and love them.  I am a very advanced skier who will put close to 100 days on them this year as i moved very close to a mountain, but in the past two years they have really only seen just over sixty days.  I throw everything at them groomers, blacks, backcountry, park, moguls, pow-pow, trees, cliff hucks, you name it they take it.  I will say though this year the bottoms are taking a HORRIBLE beating.  Any tiny little rock scratches it terribly, not too sure about whats going on though as i have taken VERY good care of them. However, if you are looking for a good ski to do anything on and can get a pair of these do it.  They are amazing.
