The Rossignol Temptation 78 skis with bindings offer you a stable platform that will put an ear-to-ear grin on your face as you charge down the mountain.

  • Rossignol Temptation 78 skis with bindings really excel when you're sticking just to the groomers, and if you find yourself going off-piste, they won't disappoint
  • Wood core creates a light and lively ski with excellent ski-to-snow feel and superb damping characteristics
  • Carbon and fiberglass laminates create a fun, lively feel to the skis and enhance stiffness
  • Varying shapes of laminates reduce weight in 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
  • Vertical sidewalls in center of skis deliver excellent power transfer for superb grip on hardpack snow
  • Saphir 110 bindings are designed for ease of use, effortless step-in and excellent comfort
  • Twin Pulsion Integral² Free binding system, which uses 2 individual control beams, optimizes the skis' natural flex
  • Women-specific control beams are shorter and lighter than unisex beams; TPI²-compatible bindings slide onto the beams for tool-free adjustment
  • As with all Rossignol women-specific skis, the mounting is moved 1cm forward as compared to unisex skis to improve turn initiation
  • High torsional stiffness minimizes play between the boot and binding, reducing energy loss
  • Visco material located between the 2 beams absorbs vibrations and smooths out the ride
  • Base or topsheet color may vary from online photo
  • Features DIN 3 - 11 release settings

Comments about Rossignol Temptation 78 Skis with Bindings - Women's - 2011/2012:

I like my new skis. I just returned from three days ski vacation. The mountain was icy, in some places snowguns made a lot of powder snow. These skis are perfect on ice, great on fresh show.

  • Was this a gift?:
  • No

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
