One of the narrowest models in Rossi’s Experience range of all-mountain skis, the 78 is predominantly aimed at harder conditions, though it will deal quite well with some softer snow too. Ideal for end of season slush, and accessible enough for good intermediate skiers looking for an all-mountain ski.

Great for :

a go-anywhere ski for harder snow conditions

Not so great for :

not all all-mountain skis are ideal for knee deep powder!

Target ability level :

As one of the narrowest skis in Rossi’s Experience range of all-mountain skis, the 78 is an ideal option for anyone from good intermediate level upwards looking for a take-me-anywhere ski in harder snow conditions. It also performs very well just after a snowfall when there’s a layer off softer stuff on top of a firm base.

The sidecut is very similar to modern piste skis and so is the overall shape. However Autoturn Rocker construction, combining 70% traditional camber with short tip and tail rocker sections gives what may look like a piste ski quite a bit of added versatility.

With a sidecut radius of 17 metres in the 174, this ski much prefers turns on the longer side of medium, but the flex is soft enough to allow anyone with a decent amount of speed and technique to bend it into a tighter turn too.
