2027 Rossignol Arcade 88 Open Women's Skis
Returning for 2027, the Rossignol Arcade 88 W brings their best race tech to a wider all-mountain freeride platform designed specifically for women who rip. Whether you're carving groomers with high edge angles or navigating tight tree runs, the Arcade 88 W thrives across a wide range of terrain. Its durable construction and adaptable shape combine to offer a rare balance of performance and control.
Why we like it:
The Arcade 88 W seamlessly combines power and precision with forgiveness and intuitive handling. This uncommon blend of traits results in a ski that feels aggressive when you need it and playful when you want it, making it an ideal companion for variable resort conditions.
Who it's for:
Targeted at advanced to expert skiers, the Arcade 88 W is best suited for those who demand top-tier carving performance but still want a ski that can confidently handle mixed terrain and occasional off-piste excursions.
Highlights:
At the core of the Arcade 88 W is a full poplar wood core reinforced by an ABS LCT (Line Control Technology) strip that runs the length of the ski, increasing longitudinal stiffness for greater stability. Full-length and full-width titanal laminates enhance torsional stiffness, ensuring excellent edge hold and effective vibration damping, making it perfect for high-speed carving. Rectangular sidewalls span the entire length of the ski to maximize energy transfer and reinforce edge grip in all snow conditions.
Things to consider:
While the Arcade 88 W handles light off-piste skiing well, its strengths lie on the frontside. Skiers who spend the majority of their time in deep powder or heavily off-trail terrain might prefer a wider ski with better float and maneuverability in soft snow.
Fit & sizing considerations:
These ski true to size; that said, skiers can size down for maneuverability without the fear of performance loss.
