Rossignol Super Blackops Skis 2023 182cm

New and exclusive to Ellis Brigham in the UK is the rad and retro looking Super Blackops, taking inspiration from a beloved but rare ski from 1994 called the Super Virage, which was only sold in Japan. With its fluorescent pink and zebra tip, it's bound to be a head-turner. The ski itself is exceptionally versatile and effortlessly adapts to all ski conditions, whether it’s powder, carving or a few laps throught the park. Its dynamic wood core and energy-boosting titanal layers give it an exceptionally relaxed feel that you’ll enjoy on every run. It’s a ski that’s grippy, manoeuvrable and precise - the choice ski for releasing the brake, making your own tracks and exploring all the dimensions of the mountain… with a guaranteed vintage look. Terrain Type & Ability Level Terrain Type These skis are built to excel wherever and whenever, boasting a powerful construction that thrives when tearing down the mountain at high speeds. They make transitioning from off-piste to on-piste a breeze, allowing for seamless shifts between the two terrains. Skier Type Built for blasting around as it suits those freeride rippers who aren't scared to open up the turns and give it some gas. This skier needs stability and punchy performance for tearing down open powder bowls or fast open motorway runs. They want one ski to do it all and aren't fussed about sacrificing short-turn manoeuverability for stability, float, and speed across all areas of the hill. Overview Shape The Progressive Sidecut profile offers confident grip and playful manoeuverability on any terrain or snow conditions. Rounded tip and tail profiles ensure quick engagement and easy turns. With its 98mm waist, it excels both on-piste and off-piste, enhanced by the rocker for added float and the extended core for torsional stability in rough terrain. Rocker Progressive Rocker, designed for the deepest powder days, Rossignol's most progressive rocker/camber profile delivers a balance of confident versatility and effortless float. The blend of longer, lower tip rocker, tapered tail profile and traditional camber underfoot allows for easy steering and quick speed scrubbing when needed.
