The Rossignol Experience 82 Basalt is a classic ski for all conditions. With its proven track record, quality construction and super stable handling, it’s been a firm favourite for a number of seasons. Its balance and easy performance will have you carving up the slopes whatever the snow and encouraging you to explore beyond the piste markers.
Terrain Suitability
They offer precision and stability for high-speed carving and their narrower profile compared to the wider 86 version enhances agility and responsiveness, making them a fantastic choice for confident skiers looking to conquer the pistes with style and control no matter what the conditions, with some side-piste adventures too.
Skier Type
Designed for intermediate and lighter-weight advanced skiers, it's a go-to option, whether you're cruising down the main runs or venturing off-piste into the trees. It's forgiving but engaging and fun, encouraging you to improve your skills and explore all the easily accessible terrain.
Shape
This ski blends classic piste shaping, which includes a deep sidecut into the tip for outstanding edge hold and a medium to short turn radius for traditional piste agility and responsiveness thanks to its All Trail Sidecut. However, it incorporates a stable 82mm waist and some additional rocker for complete stability on both freshly groomed and choppy runs.
Rocker
The paulownia wood core significantly reduces weight by up to 30%, leading to improved agility, manoeuvrability, and control. Additionally, the incorporation of basalt fibers, which are both stronger and lighter than fiberglass and possess greater elasticity than carbon, contributes to heightened power, stability, and vibration reduction in the ski core.

Construction
Rectangular Full Sidewall - a 90-degree full sidewall construction features a horizontal layering of core materials. This design delivers optimized edge grip, precision, balance, and power.
Sizing Description
Nose level to forehead height is ideal, but longer length is important if there is a bigger rocker or you're spending more time off piste where the extra stability and float a larger size provides will be beneficial.
