TEST: Rossignol 9X Oversize

Rossignol 9X Oversize with her, has chosen the latter path. For some years the house transalpine proposes to market its vision of modern skiing: very wide!
pick up these 9X almost scares you: the broad center of 80mm makes you immediately wonder "and those around them how?". The width of a ski because it guarantees stability and "buoyancy" of all types of snow, but, theoretically, makes it much more difficult to reverse: the passage from one corner to the next.
The French are the Rossignol able, with the philosophy Oversize, to compensate for this defect.
Skiing is proving to be very well planted on the ground and adapted to modern skiing: you lead without much effort, can have the best track to sleek early morning but thanks to the very large center makes life easier for skiers in times of rough terrain or very worn. This is where Rossignol surprising fact that for a second time: Oversize digest well the structure of the terrain and allows those who led him to have under control, without much effort, the direction of the ski.

The conduction of the ski is very simple, on any type of track, from red to black, even if in this last juncture is always requires great precision, otherwise dangerous interned, caused by too much confidence that tends to offer the 9X Oversize .
This model differs from its predecessors of the same name, was much softened, especially in the hardness of the tool and the entrance on the curve: it reverses the slopes with ease, freeing herself from the previous curve to get into the next without too much effort and without undergoing a catapult effect.
Who leads this ski should have a good basic technique, you can take full advantage of knees with her legs apart and independent, but wings are tarpano, and in this case also threatens to become a bit 'grumpy, when the you start to put across, drifting a bit 'too much, or very sciandolo legs together: it is a ski that invokes the modern skiing, made of curve radius and average speed. The Rossignol 9X Oversize
it goes into crisis when one tries to force his hand, pardon the foot, and leave it running (track permitting!) a little 'more: in these cases is normal to widen the turn radius , begins to wobble a spatula and in doing so skiing is much more imprecise.
try to reduce the radius of the curve rather, trying to imitate those skiers of serpentine on the track, begins to feel the width of the ski: Reverse is slow and very tiring track and half legs are burning.
These defects must not be misleading, it is still a medium-large ski bends. For what impresses is the range of higher utilization compared to direct competitors: the Rossignol is committed above all to make it easy skiing on every kind of snow, ice, fresh and ruined the track.

It's definitely a good skier skiing for a modern, does not require too much athleticism and can easily accompany you throughout the day, supporting the various types of snow that can meet in a typical day in the snow.
