Rossignol’s Experience skis have become quite popular over the last decade. They offer versatile all-mountain performance and the brand does a great job developing different models within the line to work with different level skiers. For 2021/22, they have completely redeveloped the entire collection and we’re psyched about these new skis. Sitting atop the collection is the Experience 86 Ti, essentially the new flagship model. It’s also now the widest Experience ski that Rossignol makes, quite a change from the previous Experience 92 Ti and 94 Ti. Both the shape and construction have changed, leaning a little bit more towards carving and firm snow than previous models, but still retaining some good versatility too. Rossignol uses what they call All Trail Sidecut, which we would describe as extended sidecut, more similar to the Experience shape if we went back 2 generations. The do, however, have more rocker than those skis. The All Trail Profile has camber/rocker lines that are more similar to the most recent generation. Gone are the vertical metal struts in the previous ski, and they’ve been replaced with traditional titanal laminates. We also get Rossignol’s Carbon Alloy Matrix and a new Drive Tip Solution. In Drive Tip, a complex blend of fiber and visco work to absorb impacts and funnel energy from the tip into the mid-body of the ski. If anything, Rossignol has taken these skis to the next level compared to any previous Experience ski, most notably in their power and carving performance.
