Rossignol Freestyle Skis: Bandit B3, Bandit B2 And Bandit B1

The technological development of snow skis has come a long way since enthusiasts flew down hills on little more than planks of wood. Today, ski design teams implement advanced space age technologies and engineering in their never ending quest for lighter, more durable and maneuverable skis, viable skis for all types of abilities on all types of terrain. Rossignol Freestyle Skis are perfect examples of how far the sport has come, and how intricate the technology is getting.

Made by the mainstream French pure mountain company, Rossignol Freestyle Skis are specially designed for freestyle skiing, or freeski, which encompasses the relatively new extremes of rails, half pipes, and big air as well as off-pique skiing or skiing outside of traditional ski slope boundaries. Rossignol Freestyle Skis are of the twin tip variety with each end of the ski rounded to a tip, allowing for reverse landings and more experimental skiing. Rossignol Freestyle Skis also come with wider side cuts, with each ski narrower in the middle than at the ends, which allows for sharper turning or carving. The many different styles and varieties of Rossignol Freestyle Skis are all foremost in quality, maneuverability, and style.

When Rossignol Freestyle Skis came out with their Bandit series, freeski skiers of all abilities flocked to get a pair. While the series includes divisions for unisex, women's and kids' skis, they all cover the spectrum of freestyle and its variety of terrains. Whether it's flying down steep alpine hills through fresh powdery snow, off-pique skiing through deep mounds and unpredictable conditions, or cruising down well manicured ski slopes, Rossignol Freestyle Skis has an ideal ski for it all.

Expert and professional skiers love the Bandit b3, which is ideal for off-pique freestyling. The special b3 design handles deep off trail snow perfectly, churning up almost any type of terrain one might come across when navigating outside the lines.

The b2 model is perfect for experts who want total versatility. This design handles light powdery conditions as well as harder, more weathered tracks. The maneuverability and grip of the b2 makes it ideal for either pique or off-pique terrains. Then there's the b1 for more intermediate skiers. While it's designed to stay mainly on the trails, this model has more of a freeride feel that many skiers prefer.

With the Bandit series, Rossignol Freestyle Skis offers a ski for almost any type of freestyling. Pros and enthusiasts alike love the versatility and quality of Rossignol Freestyle Skis. Whatever the terrain, whether its catching huge air off jumps, scraping rails, streaking down alpine runs or weaving through the trees off-pique, Rossignol Freestyle Skis has just the thing.
