The 2025 Rossignol Sender 106 Open is a freeride powerhouse built for skiers who want one ski to do it all. With a 106 mm waist, versatile rocker profile, and damp-yet-responsive construction, it’s ready to take on powder stashes, mixed snow, and even firm groomers without hesitation, making it a true quiver killer.

Why we like it:

It balances stability and power with a surprisingly nimble, responsive feel, which is not something you often see in a ski this wide.

Who it's for:

Expert skiers who demand a strong, confidence-inspiring freeride ski. Ideal for riders who spend a lot of time off trail but still want precision and control when cruising back to the lift.

Highlights:

Rossignol pairs their Poplar PEFC wood core with a Titanal beam for stability, vibration damping, and power at speed. Line Control Technology keeps the ski smooth and predictable on edge, while Air Tip reduces swing weight for improved maneuverability. Tip and tail rocker make for excellent float and pivoting in soft snow, and the extended sidecut ensures stability and control when opening it up.

Things to consider:

This is not a featherweight ski, so those looking for a lightweight setup may want to keep looking. It favors directional skiers who prioritize stability and confidence at speed over playful, surfy characteristics.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The Sender 106 Open skis true to size. Stronger, directional skiers can confidently size up, while those seeking more agility may prefer the shorter option.
