2025 Rossignol Experience 78 CA Skiswith Xpress 11 Bindings

Rossignol packs a big punch with a lightweight ski with the Experience 78 CA skis with bindings. With a quality build and all-mountain versatility, the Experience 78 CA makes for a great first ski for someone who spends most of their time on-trail.

Why we like it:

Built with a poplar wood core, drive tip solution, fiberglass laminates, and all-trail rocker, the Rossignol Experience 78 CA blends value and performance for intermediate skiers.

Who it's for:

This is mainly an intermediate ski for all-mountain skiers. You spend most of your time on groomers and in search of a good carved turn, but you don’t want to be let down if you come across bumps, trees, or the occasional powder day.

Highlights:

The full wood core and a capped sidewall are great additions to this ski. It provides an upscale feel with a value-oriented price. We also like the carbon fibers used to stiffen the ski and provide good feedback.

Things to consider:

While it is a well-rounded ski and great for most resort-based skiing, those with a thirst for adventure and deep snow may want to look to something wider.
