Campo test al Cervino Rossignol-Neveitalia

Rossignol The range for winter 2012 was presented to the testers Neveitalia be illuminated by two spearheads: 9SL slalom and especially the giant 9GS Cascade, around which has created a range of relatively easy and versatile skis, here are a The main impressions of the new range Rossignol .

Is there a common thread that connects the new range of 2012 Rossignol: ease of use and fun, obtained through the use of new technologies (rocker that we keep hearing about) and a return to noble materials such as wood in the top range.

Snow on the Plateau Rosa, always looks compact and winter, the skiing 9GS Cascade is that everyone has had the opportunity to praise. 80mm off the center left is not appreciated on this side of the Alps, with a slight rocker in the tip and laminated wood inside, the French engineers have produced an enjoyable skiing in all conditions and a wide audience of skiers.
The Cascade spatula with the construction and slightly curved rockers can get in quickly, especially facilitating the conduct at medium speed and in different steps in turning radius, varying by the very arc of the curve, thus confirming the impressions of the test preview end of February.

The 9SL Slant Nose was as easy and intuitive, only almost getting good grades in all parts of the evaluation board. What you experience with this first outing since skiing is a vocation not only to slalomist: it is allowed to do some wider arc of the curve and mistakes are forgiven to a greater extent than on a ski race, but if cornered shows some inaccuracy in setting the signal path. Imprecisoni, it must be said, that are negligible to the benefit of a range of use significantly higher compared to direct competitors.

Renovated in 2012 is also the Zenith Z76, the flagship of the range for house Transalpine-rounder. Rigid and resistant to twisting as needed, with titanium insert is a nice ski for medium speeds. What is preferred is the handling and comfort of the charter. Skiing will be undersized for those looking for extreme stability, instead responds to the needs of the average tourist-looking fun, but has evolved in each case the technical rudiments of carving.

On the same philosophy we find the proposal from the Zenith 74 Rossignol Alias ​​Ltd, which is to position one step below. In this case, the handling, especially at low speeds, was the prerogative followed to build the profile of this ski, especially given the skier in evolution.

Also on the Lady with the Rossignol 'Attraxion III Echo, presents a model that requires little in the management of aggressive skiing, thanks to an immediate edge grip and an easy run. If cornered however denotes uncertainty and a general feeling of insecurity, the reasons for these women with good technique is recommended to focus on other models on the same or Attraxion 9SL 9GS and measures proposed in the "female".
