Rossignol 7-Series Women - a new freeride feeling also for the women
In 2013/14, Rossignol launched its new freeride skis on the market and immediately won several awards and prizes for its high level of innovation. In particular, the novel air-filled blades, whose technology are summarized under the term "Air Tip", have caused a sensation. The success of this technology has even led to its inclusion in all-mountain skis. The women's line is in no way inferior to the men's models, only the design and dimensions are tailored to the needs of women.

Air Tip
A technology patented by Rossignol, in which the shovel has a honeycomb-like structure filled with air. This makes the shovel lighter and shifts the weight towards the center of the ski, which produces improved maneuverability and ease of turning.
Powder Turn Rocker
The Powder Turn Rocker is one of three types of rocker that Rossignol uses. The shovel and ski ends of 50% are equipped with rocker and 50% has classic preload under the ski binding. The strong rocker on the shovel provides the buoyancy iom deep snow, the rocker at the ski end for easier turning and better ride control.
Free Vas
Perfect symbiosis of paulownia wood core and air-tip blade, provides smoothness and low vibration when switching from one type of snow to another and better control of the ski.
Paulownia wood
Individual models have a wooden core made of paulownia wood. Paulownia wood is about 30% lighter than other common types of wood used in ski production, which of course makes the ski even more maneuverable.
