Powerful state-of-the-art giant slalom skis.

Race-look and sporty piste carvers that will inspire you to carve medium to long radius turns and blues and reds. The R8X follows in the long line of Rossignol de-tuned race skis that bring intermediates off a skidding plateau to a more dynamic and precise way of skiing. If you want to perform at a higher level and feel your equipment is holding you back then give the 8X a trial as a fast, progressive intermediate ski. Advanced skiers looking for a budget race ski will also enjoy them and the fact that they are forgiving enough to ski all-day long without demanding too much effort from a technically proficient rider. Don’‘t be put off by the “powerful” of the marketing speak, the 8X is very useable and is much tamer than the 9 version.
