Rossignol Experience 88 HD

Our first impressions with these skis were a feeling of power and weight. Something we didn’t have with the Rossignol Experience 100 HD. The 88 HD is in osmosis with the snow. It requires positive positioning and also good solid thighs to exploit and drive. There is significant stiffness underfoot and at the tail which is why be precise technique is important.

It behaves better in pronounced angulation with a good distance between body and feet. A real bonus is that it skis with an upright attitude when pivoting which is reassuring. The tip doesn’t get in the way, its shape and rigidity have been well designed. It doesn’t vibrate at high speed, it stays in contact with the snow and speed doesn’t overcome this ski. It is cut for going fast and especially on long turns.

This is one serene ski. Changing the arc size is not that easy to do, you must put effort and skill into deforming it. A heavier person has more ease at finding the force to deform it. The ski doesn’t lift up much in powder, so when the snow is deep you need to lean slightly back to help it rise. The tip has a metal protective cover, which increases its lifespan. They have used the concept of transparency to show the fibres in their design and manufacture, this gives a beautiful look and quality.

This is a great ski, demanding if you want to benefit from all it has to offer, especially technically. It’s a ski with horsepower and a little more inertia than the Experience 100 HD.

"Un ski qui a des chevaux sous le capot, qui possède un peu plus d’inertie que le Experience 100 HD"
