Rossignol Temptation - adventure feeling for women
Women should have as much fun skiing as men, at least if French ski manufacturer Rossignol has its way. Rossignol has developed the Temptation line, high-quality all-mountain skis for women, for all-mountain ladies who want to have something under their feet, especially to cut a good figure in deeper and softer snow. In terms of technology, equality prevails. The women's all-mountain skis are equipped with the same high-quality technology as those of the men, including the "Air Tip" technology, which comes from the Freeride collection. Here and there maybe a little lighter wood or a lighter construction, so that the ladies do not carry so heavy, but the all-mountain skis are technically and stylish absolutely on the level. The adventure can start. New comes to the winter season 2015/16 the model Temptation 77 to it, with which now six models are available. In addition, the design has been revised and looks extremely trendy and stylish.

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.
Auto Turn Rocker
The Auto Turn Rocker is one of three types of rocker that Rossignol uses. Here, the shovel and ski ends to 30% are provided with rocker (bend up) and have classic pretension to 70%. The ski turns virtually "by itself" (hence the term "auto"). 30% Rocker on the shovel and on the ski ends already provide neat for turning pleasure and facilitated swing release.
Extended Sidecut
By this Rossignol means the extension of the waist to the shovel. This improves on the one hand the edge grip at high speeds and on the other hand the turning pleasure at lower speeds on the slopes.
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.
