PRESENTATION OF THE ROSSIGNOL ESCAPER 105
A wide touring ski for lovers of open spaces
The Rossignol Escaper 105 Nano is the widest model in the Escaper range dedicated to ski touring. Developed for skiers who prioritize descents in deep snow and freerando routes, it combines generous width with a lightweight construction to maintain good performance during long ascents.
With its 105 mm underfoot, this model is aimed at practitioners looking for a ski capable of evolving in a wide range of winter conditions, from large powder bowls to more varied alpine terrains.
A lightweight construction thanks to Nano technology
The Escaper 105 Nano benefits from a construction based on a wood core combined with Nano technology developed by Rossignol. The use of carbon fibers and composite materials has been designed to reduce the overall weight of the ski while maintaining the necessary structure for committed ski touring.
This design aims to optimize the weight-performance ratio to facilitate long climbs without giving up the downhill-oriented program that characterizes this model.
A modern shape oriented towards freerando
The ski adopts a modern geometry with a progressive rocker in the tip and a slight tail rise. This architecture has been developed to enhance flotation in deep snow, improve maneuverability in varied terrains, and offer more versatility as conditions evolve throughout the season.
Its intermediate radius and relatively tight sidecuts are part of an approach favoring versatility and adaptability on different types of routes.
A touring and powder program
The Escaper 105 Nano is intended for advanced to expert touring skiers looking for a wide ski capable of accompanying both day trips and major mountain projects. Its positioning within the Rossignol range makes it a model particularly oriented towards powder, freerando, and backcountry exploration.
Thanks to its 105 mm width and lightweight construction, it is aimed at practitioners wishing to combine the advantages of a modern downhill ski with the specific requirements of ski touring.
