French company Rossignol have a long history (over 100 years) of making high quality skis from their base in the Alps near Grenoble (they have a lovely head office constructed of wood).
The Temptation 82 is an all-mountain ski designed for women that performs well in all conditions. During our 2013 on snow ski test in Austria, our female team gave high scores across the board, enjoying both its versatility and liveliness on and off-piste.
Best suited to high-end recreational and advanced female skiers looking to take on the challenge of skiing fast on-piste, easing through bump lines or enjoying the odd excursion into deeper powder snow.
They have excellent edge hold on firmly packed groomed runs and the tip rocker provides an easy entry into the turn, meaning that they don’t feel like a ski that has to be worked too hard. A good ski with a good pedigree and will surely be a popular choice in the 2013-14 winter ski season.
Rossignol Temptation 82
The Rossignol Temptation 82 impressed our testers on our 2013 on snow ski review week in Austria. They are a good all round ski that likes to venture all over the mountain. Would suit advanced female skiers looking for performance that can handle all conditions.
