The Salomon Craft has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Salomon Fastlane uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Salomon Fastlane is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Salomon Craft targets advanced riders while the Salomon Fastlane is aimed at expert riders. At $479.95 vs $749.95 MSRP, the Salomon Craft is the more budget-friendly option.
