The 2026 Rossignol EVO XT 65 Positrack with pre-mounted bindings is a confidence-building Nordic touring package designed for recreational skiers who want an easy, intuitive setup for exploring groomed and mixed terrain. With a waxless base, shorter ski length, and stable construction, it’s a go-to option for anyone looking to enjoy winter at their own pace.

Why we like it:

Few Nordic skis are as accessible and user-friendly as the EVO XT 65. With tech aimed at helping you progress without demanding perfect technique, it’s an ideal entry point into the world of cross-country skiing.

Who it's for:

Perfect for beginner and intermediate skiers who prioritize stability and ease of use in a setup built for recreational touring across varied terrain.

Highlights:

Rossignol’s Low Density Core construction keeps weight to a minimum while maintaining strength and smooth flex, thanks to integrated air channels and an Active Cap that combines fiberglass and Rossicap laminates. The Positrack base eliminates the need for waxing while still offering dependable grip and glide in changing conditions. Its Short Ski Concept enhances maneuverability and control, making it easier to turn, stop, and stay balanced. With the addition of simple Tour Step-In bindings, the entire package is ready to go right out of the box.

Things to consider:

This package is focused on enjoyment and accessibility rather than speed or performance, so skiers with high mileage goals or racing ambitions may want a lighter, more efficient option.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Thanks to the Short Ski Concept, the EVO XT 65 is sized shorter than traditional Nordic skis for easier handling. Skiers should choose their length based on weight and experience level to ensure ideal control.
