Features
AIR TIP
A Patented Technology exclusive to Rossignol! The tip is air filled for maximum lightness and constructed to retain maximum torsional rigidity. The ski's weight is redistributed, freeing the tip and tail of the ski and providing greater ease, security and versatility. The fact that the center of gravity is closer to the center of the ski concentrates strength under the skier's feet.CARBON ALLOY MATRIX
This brand-new fibre is ushering in a new era of high-efficiency materials. Combining an extremely lightweight design with high mechanical properties, the Carbon Alloy Matrix raises the ski's performance across the board, whether in terms of grip and versatility, precision and permissiveness, or stability and maneuverability. The Carbon Alloy Matrix is the result of a clever blend of Carbon fibre and Basalt fibre. Carbon provides boost, lightness and power transmission, while Basalt contributes its shock absorbing and stabilising properties. Boost your skiing for a white-knuckle experience!Alpine Skis Sizing Guide

On average, your skis should fall somewhere between your chin and forehead when held upright. There are a few additional details that play a significant role in determining which ski size is best fit for you. After consulting the size chart, be sure to consider your weight, skill level, skiing style and the type of terrain you’ll be frequenting.
Here are some reasons for sizing up or down:
Weight
- Size up if you are closer to the high end of your weight range or above average weight for your height.
- Size down if you are closer to the low end of your weight range or below average weight for your height.
Skill Level and Style
-
Size up if you are an advanced/expert skier who prefers
to be fast and aggressive in style.
- Longer skis tend to have a more stable feel.
-
Size down if you are a beginner/intermediate skier who
prefers skiing at a more leisurely pace with quick turns.
- Shorter skis offer higher overall manoeuverability.
Terrain
- Size up if you love to explore the backcountry. Most off-piste skiers lean towards longer skis.
- Size down if you prefer carving your way down a well-groomed mountain or hard pack snow.
