SKI TEST 2022
ROSSIGNOL EXPERIENCE 82 Ti * METAL ALL-MOUNTAIN * WOMEN * EDITORS’ CHOICE
BEST FOR: Advanced and expert all-mountain skiers wanting a confidence-inspiring ride.
A favourite of all the technical testers, this ski is a ticket to good times at any speed and in any terrain. “I loved it as soon as I put it on,” raved Louise Draper. “A solid all-mountain ski you can trust.” That last word seemed key. On the front half of the ski, Rossignol blended directional fibres and soft, dampening materials. The combination absorbs chatter and vibration and spits it out as energy. Along with two sheets of metal and a poplar core, the absorbed energy helps the ski bite into the hardest snow, crash through crud and carve beautiful, stable arcs. Some less proficient skiers found it hard to engage, but for those with solid technique it was a dream. “High speed, cruising, bumps, steeps, trees: I felt confident in it all,” wrote Deanna Papineau.
