Rossignol Radical Worldcup GS Limited review 2011

PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments

Rossignol has come up with a very exclusive ski that is similar to an FIS (competition ski endorsed by the International Ski Federation). Designed for skiers with excellent technical and physical prowess, the ski's stability and radius capacity places it somewhere between the Giant slalom and the Super G. This is the ultimate weapon for committed skiers and competitors looking for a specialised and truly high performance ski.

Review: Pros

• One of our reviewers summed up the Rossignol GS as a "A thoroughbred racer with character for true athletes." This is a state-of-the-art ski that performs well in long and extra long radius turns, offering good impulsion. It's extremely stable at high speeds with exceptional grip on hard snow.

Review: Cons

• This is a really demanding ski physically speaking, and it won't let you get away with much so you have to stay highly focused. A true Giant slalom ski, it's less efeective on average and short-radius turns.

Manufacturer's remarks

World Cup racing GS ski construction for athletics and committed skiers, looking for better and easier assistance/contribution of the sidecuts. Could also be used as a multievent ski between a GS and SL ski.
