Rossignol Experience 82 + SPX 12 Konect B90 Binding + Premio 80 Boot Bslt/Blk/Blk Chrome, 152cm/30.5/90mm

The Rossignol Experience 82 ski package sets an expert-rated ski and a binding rated for strong intermediate to expert skiing over a soft flex boot, so a skier grows into the setup instead of outgrowing it. The binding accepts both Alpine and GripWalk boot soles, which keeps the boot as the first piece to swap when the skiing gets more aggressive. This all-mountain ski, binding, and boot package starts relaxed and leaves room to push. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"The SPX heel soaks up impacts, and the ski's tip damping smooths out chatter, so the soft boot is not asked to absorb any of it. That is why I would put an intermediate on this setup, with the ski and binding staying calm at speed while the boot stays relaxed. The one piece I would swap later is the boot."
