The Skis:
The Rossignol Arcade 88 Skis redefine all-mountain versatility for advanced and expert skiers who want one ski capable of charging nearly anywhere on the mountain. Blending race-inspired technology with freeride construction, the Arcade 88 combines an agile 88mm waist, shorter turn radius, and Tip & Tail Rocker for powerful carving with the versatility to handle changing snow and terrain. A PEFC Poplar Wood Core and Full Titanal Layer provide stability and energy at speed, while V-A-S vibration damping and LCT technology create a smooth, controlled ride from firm morning groomers to variable afternoon conditions.

The Bindings:
The Squire 11 has progressive looks and is specially designed for lighter weight but fully motivated freeride and freestyle rookies. An lightweight Triple Pivot Light toe piece features a distinctive Ice Off Rail to keep the sole free of snow and ice. A state-of-the-art Hollow Linkage heel with its wider boot holder reduces the step-in force by approximately 35%, even with GripWalk soles. All in all, the Squire 11 is very compact and, despite its GripWalk compatibility, only 24 mm high, which allows a very direct feel and ski control.
