Racing skis for racers
"Hero" stands for the German term "Held", because the skis are made for Rossignol's ski heroes. The present range includes the top models of the Hero 2016/17 racing ski series, which are equipped with World Cup technology. Thereby the FIS models have the FIS dimensions, the Master models do not.
Two years ago Rossignol launched the new racing ski series and it promptly became a huge success. Not only the clear and strong design was decisive for this, but also the high-quality technology built into the ski. In particular, the new Prop Tech technology, in which a reinforcing layer of Zicral aluminum is cut lengthwise on the top of the core at the front, improves turn initiation and power transmission. Rossignol also uses a rocker on their race skis, the Power Turn Rocker. The additional rocker is low at 10% proportion, but the turn initiation is also supported. The 90% preload provide sufficient power and edge grip. Cascade Tip technology helps make the ski even more maneuverable. This is a special tip construction where the top two layers of metal and gals fiber are staggered, reducing the weight and inertia of the tip. The Hero racing ski is packed with high quality technology and profound know-how. It skis very fast, is very agile, shows strong edge grip and is made for safe and fast skiing. No wonder also always ski stars drive a Rossignol Hero racing ski.
