Arcade 88 2026

The Arcade 88 2026 from Rossignol is a men's all-mountain ski designed for skiers looking for the ideal combination of power, control and manoeuvrability. This model incorporates a number of advanced technologies and high-quality materials to deliver exceptional performance on a variety of terrains.

The ski core is made from poplar wood, renowned for its strength and responsiveness, resulting in an excellent compromise between lightness and durability. This material helps to create a dynamic ski, capable of responding quickly to the skier's movements while maintaining impressive stability. The integration of Titanal Beam technology, a titanium plate, increases power underfoot. This technology improves grip, rebound and energy transfer along the entire length of the ski, giving a precise, powerful ride, even at high speeds or on hard snow.

The VAS (Vibration Absorption System) plays a key role in absorbing vibrations and providing ultra-soft contact with the snow. This ensures a smooth, stable connection in all snow conditions, reducing fatigue and increasing comfort on descents. The Rectangular Full Sidewall construction is a major asset for this model. It comprises a horizontal layer of base material combined with full-length vertical side walls. This design offers optimum edge grip, improving precision, balance and power, which is essential for perfect turning control.

This Air Tip technology lightens the tips of the skis, making them easier to handle and improving turn control on all types of snow. This feature is particularly beneficial for better buoyancy in powder snow and a smoother transition on more compact snow. The Line Control Technology (LCT) integrates a central vertical power rail into the wood core, eliminating counter-bending. This innovation ensures stable, constant contact with the snow, allowing dynamic control of the line and conserving the ski's energy for enhanced performance.

The Arcade 88 2026 is therefore an ideal choice for intermediate to advanced skiers looking for a ski capable of delivering great power, precise control and easy manoeuvrability, whatever the snow conditions.
