The Rossignol Escaper 97 Nano Open Women's Skis with Bindings is a great combination package for skiers that like to earn their turns. Tipping the scales at a scant 2.4 grams at the 161-centimeter length, these skis can compete with any lightweight touring specific ski on the market today. And because they are so light, it gives women an extra leg up on skiing up hill to reach their object peak. Light is certainly right when breaking trail, or spending long hours in the skin track for far away approaches. You’ll save energy for the ascent down, and won’t be disappointed with a ski and binding that ski as well downhill as they do uphill. With a 97-millimeter waist, this is widest offering in the Escaper line up. The mid-to upper 90’s waist width is what we consider to be the most versatile width for all-mountain skiing, and the Escaper 97 delivers on this statement with a wide range of capabilities. Anyone who is an avid backcountry skier knows that you will most likely encounter a myriad of conditions from top to bottom when skiing. (It can’t a powder day every day!) Thanks to its Free Rocker design and wood core construction, the Escaper 97 has firm snow chops when you need it but can also float in powder, bust through crud and peel away corn snow all without flinching. From mini-approaches to day long tours, the Rossignol Escaper 97 Nano Open Women's Skis with Bindings will deliver.
