2026 Rossignol XP 105 Positrack Cross Country Skis with Rossignol Xplore Bindings
The 2026 Rossignol XP 105 Positrack with [binding full name] is built for the deepest snow and wildest terrain in the backcountry Nordic world. With a wide 105 mm tip, waxless base, and full metal edges, it’s designed to break trail, float over untracked powder, and descend confidently in rugged, untamed environments. [binding KD overview]
Why we like it:
We love how the XP 105 brings true backcountry capability to the Nordic touring space. It’s our top pick when snow is deep, trails are nonexistent, and the day’s goal is adventure, not laps.
Who it's for:
Ideal for experienced off-trail skiers who prioritize float and stability in soft snow. If your winter includes bushwhacking through glades, climbing rolling backcountry hills, and navigating varied snow conditions, this ski is made for it.
Highlights:
The full Positrack waxless base gives you grip without skins and still maintains glide across flat terrain. The 105 mm shovel floats effortlessly in deep snow, and the full metal edge offers added confidence on technical descents or variable crust. Paired with the XPLORE binding platform, this ski allows for greater freedom of movement and control. [binding highlights]
Things to consider:
With its wide profile, the XP 105 excels in soft snow but may feel cumbersome in firm or well-tracked terrain. Skiers who stick closer to groomed areas or want more versatility may prefer the narrower XP 85.
Fit & sizing considerations:
Available in lengths from 160 to 190 cm, the XP 105 skis true to size. Choose based on skier weight and terrain—shorter for maneuverability in tight spots, longer for better glide and deep snow performance.
