2025 Rossignol Experience 80 Carbon Skis W/ Xpress 11 GW Bindings

The 2025 Rossignol Experience 80 Carbon is a versatile and approachable all-mountain resort ski that combines a light weight, agile, feel with confident edge control. Light and energetic, the Experience 80 CA will help those looking to progress learn the basics of carving and hone their skills without the limitation of a heavier ski. As a wider bodied carving ski, there is also a bunch of versatility packed into this ski so that you can take your progression to all parts of the resort.

Why we like it:

Great option for newer skiers who are honing their skills and learning the fundaments due to its approachability and ease of use.

Who it's for:

Progressing beginners to intermediate skiers who seek a ski that is easy to turn with a wider footprint for more versatility.

Highlights:

A light and poppy core consisting of Paulownia is used to give skiers immediate response and reward when making carved turns. Carbon laminates are then used to add more energy and stability to the ski. Full Rectangular Sidewalls are used to boost overall stiffness as well as transfer power directly to the edge for confidence inspiring grip on firm snow. Drive Tip uses fiberglass in the tips of the skis to dampen vibrations for a smooth and stable feel through variable snow.

Things to consider:

The Experience 80 CA is a ski intended for skiers who are progressing in the early stages of their skiing careers. If you are a more experienced skier who is already past this stage and are looking for something with some power and high-speed stability, there are other options that would better suit your needs.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis true to size.
