Rossignol S3 Skis - Women's 2013: The Rossignol S3 Skis allow you to scratch that powder itch and lay tracks in places you’ve only dreamed of. Slightly narrower than their big sister the S7W, the S3 Women’s Skis are a good choice for the skier who spends a significant portion of her ski day inbounds but still enjoys laps in the sidecountry. The Powder Turn Rocker delivers fatigue-free maneuverability, effortless steering and instant speed control, making powder skiing easier and more fun. The Centered Sidecut provides versatility and edging power when you need it. The Rossignol S3 Skis will improve your skiing anywhere on the mountain, and leave you begging for more!

Centered Sidecut: Sidecut features a unique tapering of tip and tail with short sidecut directly underfoot / Deep radius gives edge grip and power underfoot while short length of sidecut allows easy steering and playfulness
Spoon Tip: Spoon shaped tip for maximum floatation / Tip profile is tapered for effortless tracking in deep snow
Construction
Sandwich Laminate Wood/Fiberglass Core provides ultimate stability, power and durability
Traditional sidewalls apply direct pressure to the edges for increased precisions and edging power
Dimensions
17.5 m @ 168 cm, 124/96/114

Specs

  • Terrain: All-Mountain, Powder
    All-Mountain
    All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.
    Powder
    These skis are for the deep days. If you like to find powder stashes at your local resort, go on backcountry missions for the freshest of fresh or heli ski trips to BC, powder skis are what you need to stay afloat. Skis in the powder category are wide and most often have some form of rocker or early rise plus a relatively soft flex. Many powder skis today are versatile enough to handle mixed conditions and harder snow.
  • Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced
    Intermediate-Advanced
    The majority of skiers/snowboarders fall into this level, whether you like to carve on groomers or venture into the powder. These skis/snowboards may be somewhat wider than beginner-intermediate skis, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Depending on the type of ski, intermediate-advanced level skis may have full camber, rocker, or some combination of the two.
  • Turning Radius: 17.5 m @ 168 cm m, Medium
    Medium
    17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
  • Rocker Type: Rocker/Camber/Rocker
    Rocker/Camber/Rocker
    Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as will as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.
  • Core/Laminates: Wood
  • Tail Type: Full Twin Tip
    Full Twin Tip
    Desinged to allow you to ski backwards, full twin tips are found primarily on park & pipe skis and freestyle powder skis. More and more, we are seeing twin tips on all-mountain skis of all abilities, as it makes it a little easier to get around, and for the most part does not inhibit forward skiing.
  • Ski Awards: Freeskier Editor's Picks, Ski Magazine Gold Medal Gear
  • Series: S-Series
  • Warranty: 1 Year

    Comments about Rossignol S3 Skis - Women's 2013:

    I like how they are light and flexible for quick turns or long curvy carving. On moguls they seem to balance themselves. Borrowed my friend's S3's and it took some getting used to after using very stiff skiis. After I got back on the stiffies again, I wanted the S3's back, Pronto! So I bought them as soon as the budget allowed. In very heavy or hard crusty snow, a heavier longer stiffer ski would be better. It is definitely a good all mountain ski otherwise. Fantastic in powder!!!

        I just received these skis and have skied them twice, although I demoed them previously. They are great - very user friendly. They don't require any attention - just let them do the work and go along for the ride. They've been great in the spring corn and slush. Great western states ski.

              Comments about Rossignol S3 Skis - Women's 2013:

              These are great skis if you like to ski all kinds of terrain but don't want to buy several different kind of skis. They respond well in most conditions, but not amazing on any particular one. I ski mostly blacks and some blues. These skis do well on bumps. I recommend buying longer then normal since these skis are rockers. The graphics are beautiful on these skis as well.
