2027 Rossignol Sender 100 Open Skis

The Sender 100 bridges the gap between all-mountain versatility and playful freeride power. With a 100 mm waist and balanced rocker profile, it's designed to handle soft snow, mixed conditions, and firm inbounds laps with equal confidence.

Why we like it:

This ski stands out for its blend of stability and accessibility. We like how it feels energetic underfoot yet calm when the snow turns choppy. It adapts easily from carved turns to softer snow, offering a little something for everyone.

Who it's for:

The Sender 100 is ideal for advanced skiers seeking a single ski that performs across most resort conditions. It's a strong choice for creative skiers who like to explore off trail, then dip into the park on the way back to the lift.

Highlights:

A Poplar core construction paired with VAS technology enhances damping, reducing chatter in variable or choppy conditions. The 100 mm waist offers a versatile platform that nicely balances float and edge control, and an 18 m radius provides stability without sacrificing maneuverability. Tip and tail rocker improve turn initiation and soft-snow performance, while camber underfoot maintains grip on firmer snow.

Things to consider:

The Sender 100 will not float as effortlessly as wider powder skis in deep snow. Those who take a directional approach to skiing may not get the full benefit of the Sender 100, as it requires someone with a creative and playful style to fully appreciate its capabilities.

Fit & sizing considerations:

It feels true to length with a balanced flex pattern. Skiers focused on stability should stay at their usual size, while those emphasizing agility in tighter terrain can consider sizing slightly shorter.
