Rossignol B3

Strengths:
powder, soft crud

Weaknesses:
stability at speed, crud, ice, moguls, hardpack, park

Summary:
handles great in pow, trees, and soft crud. no fun for hauling ass, skiing moguls, or spining 3's

Riding style: piste-powder

Strengths:
Nice and lightweight in pillows

Weaknesses:
Helkassa in the piste
A little clothe coat

Summary:
No pistilage, but maybe nobody had expected it. Completely ok as offpiste skiing, even though the bed is broken very easily. Have just tried randonnébindings, maybe affecting the rating a little. The rating may have to end at 3.5.

Riding style: Powder
Length on the ski: 195 cm
Riders weight: 85 kg
Riders length: 195 cm

Strengths:
Very stable in all bowls, Pillows to be erected. Just go as fast as you dare. You have almost always fun on this ski

Weaknesses:
Requires a lot of speed and big turns to get some proper carving rides in the piste, but on the other hand, it's actually no pistol skiing so it's not that strange. A little higher tip in front had not been completely wrong

Summary:
goa stuff! run my with Naxo 21 bindings and think it works well for a little easier randone. Ridden 2 months in St. Anton with them and just picked up the pistes for 1.5 days

Riding style: alles
Length on the ski: 178 cm
Riders weight: 73 kg
Riders length: 174 cm

Went on the ski 5 months this winter.
Very nice it just as the other reviewers say.
But could be a little wider for my taste.

Got rid of the skid in my ass on my last day :(
But got a patch on the wounds next year's model of the skid, which is quite logically called B4 ???
And is green and really nice
1mm wider and a little harder.

The price for the ski is circus 900 € without bonds according to the price tag in St. Anton.

Riders weight: 90 kg

Just come home after 2 months in France. There I took the chance to try a part of next year's ski and could only find a ski that stole out of the crowd. Rossignol B Sqaud, an extreme width skis from Rossignol, though a turning radius of 25m (less than B3). Has developed a lot from its pro model B4, released in very limited edition. It's not as rigid as the B4 but it's a completely sensible good off-piste skiing that you can drive with. You must have good bone muscles to get the full capacity of this ski. They have done their entire model program next year so that the day B3 will be hot B4 next year. The colors they drive with will probably be followed even in the next series. Bsqaud will have a green side with the same flames as this year's B3: or hat. The price is today at about 1200 Euro without bindings.

Rumor claims that Salomon will stop producing Offpistskidor because it is too small market.
So, those who like to drive on Solomon's Spaceframe AirRocket should probably buy a pair of because there will not be more.

Dynastar Pro Legend will have a minor face lift for next season.
Stökli DP will be stiffer next season (obviously not as they are)

And not last but least. This year's skiing in Chamonix was undoubtedly Völkl Gotama, everyone had it - seemed like when they saw them on their way to the mountain.

Riders weight: 87 kg

Very good skis, tested Scratch BC, pocket rocket, T @ nker and big stix, but the B3 is clearly the best as long as it is kept away from Swedish ice pistes.

Model year: 2004

very good skiing in the offpiste. wears very well
and is also smooth in the woods. goes very well
in the wet snow, mostly consisting of puckles
when yes went with those in the home team.

Have run a season on B3 in 185 and find it clearly better than the old XXX. It's significantly softer than XXX, which made the tip go up in the sneeze instead of diving down which the old one had a tendency to do.
A truly superb ski for everything except stone frozen, uneven snow.
I got the best pillows on, but it took a while to get used to it being softer than usual. Maybe a bit soft in the back when dropping rocks.
It's extremely fast stable but still a happy ride. That it looks amazing is not a minus.
Can not answer if it's affordable, but it must be, whatever it costs.
A clear step up for Rossignol.

The skis are soft and go very well in the piste both when it's hard and sloppy .. Really affordable skis ...! I am a racing driver, but I still think the skis had to be measured. Even though it is a fat skid, I think it is also a good all-purpose ski. The one to keep in mind is that the swing radius of 185s is 26m so it does not differ much to other skis. My tip is to buy these skis if you are looking for a skid with good edge grips that are a couple of real locomotives on the hill !!!
