    Designed to make memorable days off the beaten path, the Rossignol Experience 98 skis supply power and stability.

    • Built for days that take you all over the mountain, the Rossignol Experience 98 skis excel on variable terrain, and they'll hold their own on powder days
    • Poplar wood core creates a light and lively ski with excellent ski-to-snow feel and superb damping characteristics
    • Titanal and fiberglass laminates provide powerful stiffness and lively response
    • Varying shapes of laminates reduce the weight of the tips, making them easier to control
    • Layered laminates in tips also smooth out turn initiation, improve edge contact during turns and increase side-to-side response
    • Subtle rocker in tips and tails offers easy steering in any snow condition, and traditional camber underfoot provides tenacious edge grip
    • Extended sidecut continues beyond the rockered tips and tails, providing full engagement of ski edges during turns at high speeds and easy maneuverability at low speeds
    • Base or topsheet color may vary from online photo
    • Requires bindings with wide brakes

    Recommended rider weights are a general guideline. Please keep in mind that additional factors can affect which size will best suit your needs. If you have questions regarding ski and snowboard sizing, please contact us at 1-800-426-4840.

    Please note: Rossignol products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

      Comments about Rossignol Experience 98 Skis - Men's - 2012/2013:

      A very damp, smooth, incredibly stable and powerful wider all mountain ski. The magazine reviews are accurate. If you like energetic and a lively feeling ski skip the Rossi 98. It craves speed and feels glued to the snow its so damp. You can get energy out of the ski but you have to put it into it to get it back. Amazing edge grip on steep icy groomers, floats just fine in powder, and bombs through crud. I'm a very aggressive expert skier and my legs got tired quicker than on my other pairs of skis. A very powerful ski that will take whatever you throw at it, just not very lively.
