Rossignol Temptation 77 2018 Ski Review

Colourful, fun and a delight underfoot, you will be in great hands with the Rossignol Temptation 77 2018 this winter. This is a very supportive ski that would make the perfect companion for someone looking to improve and develop their skiing skills.

On piste the edge hold is really impressive, with a traditional camber and tip and tail rocker making carving turns a joy. This is a great ski for someone who has built up their technique on piste and really wants to show it off, charging across the mountain with energy and precision.

The 77mm waist is a great size for those who want to excel on the piste while remaining buoyant enough across the powder. It really is versatile, with enough power to easily conquer varying terrains and conditions.

We found the real selling point of this ski to be its responsiveness. It does exactly what you want, when you want, and is consistently lively and playful to ride. This makes it a great choice for anyone wanting to have a lot of fun on the mountain this winter. Whether you prefer light, snappy turns between bumps or long, carved turns down the groomed runs, this ski will deliver.

The Rossignol patented Air Tip keeps the Temptation 77 feeling extremely light underfoot, but with a rigid stability that keeps you comfortable on any terrain. This provides you with the security to really focus on developing your confidence and skills across the mountain.

The Rossignol Temptation 77 will allow you to bring your skiing to the next level, and is a ski that will develop with you, allowing you to do more as your confidence grows. It is a great ski for someone who enjoys all areas of the mountain but doesn’t quite feel fully confident yet.
