Rossignol's Experience 83 is an extremely versatile tool for skiing the entire mountain. Rossi's Auto Turn Rocker is a blend of seventy percent camber underfoot, with thirty percent tip and tail rocker. Tip rocker initiates the skis quicker on the hard pack, gives you more floatation in the powder, and helps deflect negative energy when you ski into the crud. The extended sidecut continues past the contact points where the tip and tail rocker starts, so when you put the ski up on edge more sidecut is engaged for more powerful turns and better grip on the ice or firm snow. A wide mounting plate for the bindings increases leverage and control when you make some nice sweeping turns down the fall line. Full vertical sidewalls have all of the edge grip that you will need on ice that you may encounter back east or in the Midwest. The cascade tip lowers swing weight for quicker turn initiation. The Experience 83 is a true all mountain tool if you plan on skiing everywhere. Experience the experience today.

This is Bob. I just got off the new Rossignol Experience 83. I give this ski a 3/5 stars although it would be a great ski for an up-and-coming intermediate or intermediate advanced. Its got a full sidewall underfoot with the cap under tip and tail which really helps to initiate turns. It just gets a little squirrely when you're going higher at speeds. All and all a good ski.

Hi! Trey here with the Rossi Experience 83. I'm going to give this ski five out of five stars. It absolutely rocks, I loved it. It's a great front of the mountain ski, awesome on the groomers. You can lay way out there, totally holds no problem. Very, very confidence building when you're fast or trying to get better. So, I think anybody from an advanced intermediate up through expert skier is going to love this ski.

Hi my name is Steve. I just got off the Rossignol Experience 83. I love this Experience series. I was really impressed with it. It's a brand-new series from Rossignol, I give this one 4/5 stars. I actually like the 88 better, I like the little extra width on it. Found the ski a little bit more stable but this is a good stable ski. I recommend the 83 for those people who are skiing mostly Midwest and East Coast conditions, the 88 would be better for people who also like to use this ski both out West as well because it has a little bit more width to it. You'll notice this ski, It's sidecut comes all the way up to the tip so all the way up to here you're really getting edge on the snow. So, it seems like it's a longer ski which I like because it gives me a sense of stability. The side wall under the mid portion of the ski with a cap on the front and back allowing the tips and tails to initiate into the turn easily. the side wall on the side gives the ski really good stability and really good edge hold. So, I really like this ski 4/5 for the whole Experience series from Rossignol. I definitely think this series is the best I've seen from Rossignol yet.

Hi this is Luke. I just finished skiing the Rossignol Experience 83. I give this Ski 4/5 stars. Very stable ski, very enjoyable. Has a tremendous amount of edge grip. We have a vertical sidewall here, it makes this ski very responsive when you're out there arching some nice turns. With a capped construction in the tip and tail so it's pretty easy to initiate turns. It's not a lot of work to actually ski this ski, just a real nice stable feel to it. It'd be perfect for that advanced intermediate level skier to advanced level skier looking for a good all mountain bargain ski.

Hi I'm Kevin, I just got off the brand-new Rossignol Experience 83. Really good ski here from Rossi this year. Perfect for intermediate to low end advanced level skier. Solid side wall under the foot, you have capped tip and tail so it makes it very easy to initiate the turn. If you do go mach 1 speeds on this it will get a little squirrely on you but again it's designed more for that intermediate and advanced level skier not the expert. It's capped tip makes it very easy to initiate, you have a little bit of rocker in the tip too so it doesn't get flipped up. Lets you float in some of the powder and cruddy snow. The sidewall gives you great edge grip on the hardpack. Skis very quick edge to edge, you just think about it and it turns. It initiates the turn so easy so this ski for an intermediate to advanced level ski I give it 4/5 stars.

Hi this is John. I'm here with the Rossignol Experience 83. This particular ski they make it into models; one is a system which I skied here today [$], great price. also a flat ski at [$]. I guess they had the flat ski has been received a little better than the system ski but overall I give it a four star. I found it with a rocker built into it, very easy to initiate the turns. Partial sidewall construction and a full wood core offer good edge control. It gets a little bit icy out there with the wind and it felt extremely solid. Coming out of the turns it was pretty snappy and being 83 under foot it felt solid the whole time. So, I'd say this was a pleasant experience.

Hi I'm EJ. This is the Experience 83 from Rossignol. I was skiing in the 176 length, this ski is designed for intermediate through advanced level skiers and anyone from that level will really rock on this ski. 83 mm wide will carry you on the snow, on the nice powder yet if you're on hard pack conditions this ski will hold for you. Jimi Hendrix would ask: "Are you experienced?" well you don't have to have a ton of experience to enjoy this ski but even if you do you still will dig it! I really recommend this ski I'm gonna give it a solid four stars all the way around. Have a great ski day.
