DESCRIPTION

The Rossignol Arcade 88 brings all-mountain versatility in the sense that they intended to be for snow that you find, not the snow you expect to find. Whether it be charging groomers and generating high edge angles or wiggling through your favorite glades, the Arcade 88 is the weapon of choice. Featuring a burly construction paired with a versatile shape, it is a combination that is impossible to replicate.

Why we like it:

Precise and powerful yet forgiving and intuitive, the way that the Arcade 88 brings opposing characteristics is truly remarkable.

Who it's for:

Advanced to expert skiers who seek a ski that will be fit for any condition and have an emphasis on carving performance.

Highlights:

A full poplar wood core with an ABS LCT (Line Control technology) strip that vertically runs the length of the ski to bolster longitudinal stiffness. Full length and width titanal laminates boost torsional stiffness for edge grip and dampen vibrations collectively work together for maximum carving performance. Rectangular Sidewalls running the full length of the ski bolster longitudinal stiffness and directly transfer power to the ski's edges.

Things to consider:

The Arcade 88 is a Groomers oriented resort ski that has some off Groomers capabilities. So, if you plan on spending half or the majority of your time off-Groomers, there are better options out there with more float and maneuverability.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Skis true to size.

2 sheets of metal means a burly ski that can hold an edge, but still a little playful to venture into some easy bumps or skid some turns.

Thoughts
Frontside, groomers.
The size run doesn’t line up with my preferences. 170 skis a little short but the 178 would be too long. Shorten the gap between sizes.
Overal Impression
I found this ski more versatile and playful than the rep explained it would be. Significant change from the recent Experience 88s and more akin to the OG Experience 88s from a decade ago, which is a good thing! 2 sheets of metal means a burly ski that can hold an edge, but still a little playful to venture into some easy bumps or skid some turns.
