Rossignol’s Sender Free 100 provides an awesome platform for mixing park, freeride, and all-mountain skiing for advanced and expert skiers. This twin tip ski is basically a pared-down version of the Sender Free 110 but uses a different construction to appeal to more freestyle and creative skiers. It is, though, a twin tip with a more centrally recommended mount point, emphasizing the park capacity and the overall intent. In addition, it has proven to be a fun all-around ski with a bit more symmetry and balance than the more directional Soul series.

Built with a poplar wood core, the Sender Free 100 does not get the titanal beam that we find in the Free 110. The 100 does get the benefit of their Carbon Alloy Matrix, but they increase the amount of basalt stringers versus carbon and place it below the core as opposed to the 110 which has it on top. This ski tips the scale at just around 2000 grams in the 184 cm length and provides good stability and smoothness at higher speeds. While that weight may seem hefty, the ski also uses Rossignol’s Air Tip to lighten the swing weight. Tester Eli Moskowitz notes that “The ski held an edge very well and had a lot of energy to pop in between turns making carving very fun. I noticed that the tails of the skis gripped very well giving the feeling of support, however I did not have any trouble breaking the tails free to throw in some slashes and playing around.”

The Rocker / Camber / Rocker profile of the 2026 Rossignol Sender Free 100

In terms of shape and profile, the Free 100 uses a twin tip shape with relatively symmetrical splay to encourage playful and creative skiing. With a central mount point, about –2 from center, this ski uses that symmetry and balance to boost the park and slopestyle acumen. While 100 is on the wide side for most competitive park skiers, it’s great for those who mix terrain park with their all-mountain skiing. The Free 100 uses sidecut measurements of 131/100/123 to generate an 18-meter turn radius in the 178 cm length. These measurements are leaning towards symmetry as well, although there are far more symmetrical skis out there. With rounded taper in the tips and tails, this ski strikes a balance between firmer snow carving and softer snow flotation. Nice grip underfoot with the camber allows this ski to feel comfortable on groomed terrain. Tester Jose Darias states that “The shape of the ski lends you to assume that the flex would be on the softer side but the ski has some great back bone to it, especially in the tail of the ski. My tired legs dropped into the back seat on a few turns and the stiffness on the back half of the ski quickly reminded me to get back to the front of my boots. When piloted with an expert hand, this ski has a great top end, feels balanced on the snow and in the air and has a great playful shape to go with that power.”

The ski held an edge very well and had a lot of energy to pop in between turns making carving very fun.I think this is a great versatile all mountain ski.

This Rossignol Sender Free 100 is very much at home in the resort, making quick work of groomers, bumps, and trees on its way to the park. It’s great for side hits, natural jumps, and backcountry booters as well, but its main benefit is the mixing of all-mountain skiing with slopestyle performance.

Size Impression
I felt the 184 was a good size for me. The tip and tail rocker make the ski feel a bit shorter then a full camber 184. I would personally choose the 184 since I prefer my skis a bit longer however I do not think I would find the 178 too short.

Thoughts
I think this is a great versatile all mountain ski. I would consider this a freestyle all mountain ski based on the rocker camber profile, but it does lean more towards the all mountain side then the traditional park ski.
Nothing, I think it is an awesome one quiver ski for an all mountain skier that like to dabble in freestyle.
