Step away from the rental counter and try your hand at progression on Rossignol’s Experience 78 CA Ski. Designed to make the learning process a bit more intuitive, the Experience 78 CA makes an excellent accomplice for beginner and intermediate skiers alike. It’s stable at speeds, grippy on firm terrain, and strikingly controlled on steeper pitches—making the Experience 78 CA a top dog in a resort setting. At 78mm underfoot, the Experience 78 CA falls on the wider end of the frontside spectrum and offers a great balance between maneuverability and control from edge-to-edge. Softer snow is still an option with these skis—as is choppier afternoon conditions—allowing skiers to try their hand in a wider range of conditions and terrain. A simple construction keeps the Experience 78 CA’s weight to a minimum and its overall cost at a bargain price, opening the door to a wider audience who may not want to splurge on their first pair of skis.
