As a new member of the Arcade lineup, the 2026 Rossignol Arcade 94 is the widest among the bunch, but sits between the 84 and 88 in terms of the actual characteristics of the ski. It takes the power of the 88 and the playfulness of the 84 and combines them in a wider bodied all mountain format to give us a ski that absolutely rips on firm snow, yet has the width to tackle softer conditions.

Why we like it:

We love the more traditional feel of the Arcade 94; it’s short radius allows you to access a variety of turn sizes and shapes.

Who it's for:

Directional skiers who prefer a more traditional shape and camber will feel right at home on the Arcade 94.

Highlights:

Rossignol gives the Arcade 94 its own unique construction in the line. 2 layers of Titanal bolstering the wood core provide torsional stiffness and give the ski plenty of power, but don’t extend into the tips and tails of the ski, which allows for a slightly more forgiving flex and gives the 94 a friendlier, more supple feel. A traditional directional shape means that in spite of its wider width, the Arcade 94 is very much a piste oriented ski.

Things to consider:

While the Arcade 94 is definitely softer in the tip and tail compared to the 88, make no mistake – this is still a stiff, burly ski that does require a fair amount of skill to maneuver. The lack of taper in the tips and tails means the Arcade 94 initiates quickly and likes to finish a turn; skiers looking for something smeary and surfy will want to look at something more freeride oriented.

Fit & sizing considerations:

With a longer effective edge, these ski a bit on the long side and skiers can size down without fear of a performance penalty.
