Rossignol Radical R8X Oversize Ski Hire and Equipment Review

Trail skis for Giant Slalom turns. High speeds with maximum comfort.

Easy going advanced and sporty intermediate GS style skis. The R8X’‘s are deep shovelled, smooth at medium speeds and not too stiff to allow you to experience some real carving sensations at relatively low speeds in comparison to a GS racer. Ideally suited to medium to a slightly longer radius even in the 174 cm they achieve a 16m radius- so not too demanding if you find yourself in need of turning quickly or washing some speed off. Sharing the same dimensions as their legendary 9X brothers the R8X’‘s will help you develop your skiing into controlled, carvey high-speed cruising- with a touch more forgiveness than brutal race thoroughbreds. 3.5/5
