At the 2023/2024 WorldSkitest the skis were closely evaluated in the category „Freeride I“. Tester opinion: "In previous years, this rating of the "Stance 96" would definitely have been enough to become the test winner. This year it was enough - in this extremely strong field - for an excellent fourth place. Particularly striking is the great rating in the long turns. No other model can keep up with the "Salomon" here. So are you looking for a ski with which you can really step on the gas? Then this freerider is exactly the right one for you."
