Rossignol JDub MagTek - 2011

Rossignol JDub MagTek

Much like the Rossignol One, the Rossignol JDub has had a complete transformation. Since its conception the JDub has been a heavily cambered, super stiff rocket-ship, designed for carving hard on the sketchiest ice and scaling the steepest pipe walls. The JDub still does this job, but the Freestyle Amptek has made it less twitchy and sooo much more playful. Our jib ninja Mikee C took the JDub for a spin and ended-up rating it the best board he tested all week… praise indeed from someone who would have taken last years JDub for a lap of the park and had a heart attack. It’s different, but you’ll love it.

Rossignol One MagTek

If you strip the usual high standard Rossignol build quality and the familiar graphics, you’ll find very little in the 2011 Rossignol One MagTek that resembles 2010’s version. Sure the One still uses the same materials and Magnetraction edges, but the introduction of the Rossi’s AmpTek profile has completely changed the One’s ride characteristics. Where as last year the One was a stiff charger made for riding hard and fast, this year’s One still possesses those qualities but is manageable and playful at slower speeds and isn’t restricted to advanced and experienced snowboarders. If we’re honest, the One now rides like the Angus with Magnetraction.

Rossignol Diva Magtek

With a lot of brands, the women’s board line-up misses out on the tech that the boys’ boards get. Not at Rossi. The Rossignol Diva MagTek has all the ingredients to make an epic board for strong female all mountain freestylers. Magnetraction edges for grip in icy pipes; Freestyle Amptek for catch-free run ins and forgiving landings; Carbon and Kevlar reinforcement for chatter free charging and enough torsional stiffness to make sure you don’t wash out however hard you carve; and a high grade 4.4k sintered base to give you enough speed to reach the landing on any kicker. The new Diva paint-job pairs up nicely with the Diva bindings.

Rossignol Decoy

In the past the Decoy has been a bit of a handful. The firm flex between the feet and in the nose and tail meant the Decoy really was a board for advanced freestylers. For 2011 the Decoy has kept all the good bits like the standard issue Rossi 4.4k sintered base which when waxed is easily one of the fastest on the market; a tight progressive sidecut for stable landings and takeoffs and instance response; and Carbon and Kevlar reinforcement for uber pop and charging capability. To make the Decoy more accessible the guys at Rossignol have introduced all new Freestyle Amptek. By moving the start of the rocker closer to the tips they’ve increased the depth of camber between feet, a compromise between Amptek and camber. The result is a less catchy ride which has retained a poppy nose and tail. The softened flex between the bindings increases playfulness. Expect other brands to be watching Rossignol’s new Amptek variations very carefully.

Rossignol Experience MagTek - 2011

Rossignol Experience MagTek

The stiffest, highest specification core design and reinforcements that Rossignol make. A 7500 grade sintered base, the fastest Rossignol make. A shape designed by freeride legend Jeremy Jones and three times Freeride World Tour winner Xavier De La Rue. Magnetraction edges and All Mountain Amptek technologies, two of the most ground breaking design phenomena’s of the last decade of snowboard design. All these features and materials have come together to create a freeride thoroughbred with a reputation to match. One of the best backcountry missiles on the market.

Rossignol Trickstick

Progression is a word you’ll hear a lot in the Rossignol catalogue. The Trickstick is all about giving snowboarders the best tool for improving their freestyle snowboarding. Auto Turn AmpTek makes the Trickstick incredibly easy to turn and stable during run ins so you can concentrate on what trick you’re going to throw down.

Rossignol Angus

Snowboard-Review.com’s head of testing Tom still rants and raves about the Angus, his words at the time of testing were ” I absolutely love it”. However, it wasn’t just Tom’s opinion, last year the Angus cleaned up on awards from some of the planets most highly revered snowboard media, the revolutionary new Amptek profile had everybody in the industry talking. This year the Angus returns pretty much unchanged, some might say, change for the sake of change is futile. The only change we can find this year is a new lick of paint… a paint job so gruesome it will make small children cry from 50 feet away.

Rossignol Justice

To put it simply, the Justice is the womens version of last years smash hit the Rossignol Angus. With the same DNA as a board that won the Transworld Good Wood Award for best board under $400 and 2nd best of test in the Snowboarder Magazine annual board test, you can be sure that the Rossignol Justice is going to meet your needs when it comes to all mountain freestyle and smash your expectations.

Rossignol Taipan - 2011

Rossignol Taipan

The board everybody has been waiting for Rossignol to build. Perfect for intermediate snowboarders who have mastered the art of turning and want a board to help them advance their freeride and freestyle skills. Rossignol have loosened up the Taipan with the ‘must have’ Amptek All Mountain rocker/camber hybrid profile and packed it full of features like the a tip-to-tail wood core, a medium weight glass and a 4.4K Sintered base. Rossi have then held back on the flashy extras like Kevlar and Carbon stringers, so this board has a softer flex for helping intermediate riders master the art of snowboarding and costs less too.

All new to the 2011 Rossi line-up, the Rossignol Circus has all of the ingredients girls need to take their snowboarding to the next level and keep it there. With All Mountain Amptek, minimal reinforcement and a super fast 4400 grade sintered base the Circus will dominate any terrain but be soft enought to encourage quick progression.

Rossignol Tesla

Stuck in a rut with your snowboarding skills? The Rossignol Tesla is designed specifically to help female riders progress. From park to powder, Rossignol’s AutoTurn camber/rocker hybrid is the latest take on Amptek technology. By shortening the length of camber between the feet and increasing the rocker at the nose and tail, the Tesla is incredibly easy to turn, agile and floaty in powder. Because snowboarding on the Tesla is so easy, you can concentrate on pushing your skills and catching some air.

Rossignol Myth - 2011

Snowboard added by Rich Ewbank - (0) comments.

Rossignol Myth

A soft snowboard designed to take female snowboarders from taking their first turns on the bunny hill to hitting their kickers in the park. A suitably unflashy snowboard with zero gimmicks and a pleasant paint job. Buy the Myth, save some money and fritter away the rest on a spa day.

Rossignol Retox - 2011

Snowboard added by Rich Ewbank - (0) comments.

Rossignol Retox

The Retox isn’t your average jib stick; for one there’s a hefty helping of carbon and kevlar reinforcement and a sintered base for speed into big jumps and for boosting out of the pipe. Think of the Retox as a jib board for freestylers who like stiffer jib boards that can handle actual mountains instead of super soft noodles designed for urban handrails assaults.

Rossignol JDub Mag

The Rossignol JDub looks like nothing you’ve ever seen, the lovechild of a snowboard and the Batmobile, it’s strange looks will get you more respect than that one-piece you’ve got stashed away in your loft., trust me, I’ve got one… a JDub that is! On the hill the JDub’s Magne-Traction edges offer incredible grip, edge-to-edge response is impressive and the pop is ballistic! At high speed the JDub offers chatter free carving. A great snowboard for advanced and aggressive riders who want to ride large jumps and halfpipe.

Rossignol Experience

Last February at the Slide trade show in Manchester Snowboard Review picked out the Rossignol Jones as one of the snowboards to look out for this season.. since Jeremy’s shock departure from Rossi, the board has been renamed the Experience. Constructed with Magnetraction, Rossignol’s AmpTek rocker profile and Carbon and Kevlar reinforcement this freeride beast is designed to be railed on its edge at mach 10, drop huge cliffs and hold an edge on critical ice loaded traverses. With Xavier De Le Rue taking more than his fair share of silver wear this season, you can rest assured; the Experience has been tried, tested and proven!

Rossignol One Mag

All mountain performance in One snowboard. With snowboarders like Swiss uber guru Jonas Emery choosing to ride the One for pretty much every terrain he encounters, you can be sure the One will stand upto what you can put it through. Loaded with Magnetraction for the 09/10 season and reinforced with carbon and kevlar this Rossignol will offer uncomprimising grip and stability in all snow conditions. Definitely sporting one of the classier more understated graphics of this years Rossignol line-up.

Rossignol Angus

Rossignol wanted to build a rocker that had all the pop, smooth landings, catch free cruising and float of a rocker with the control, edge hold and response of a camber. The Amptek is the fruit of their labours, the only mens freestyle board in the Rossi range to feature Amptek technology this season is the Angus. A firm flex and some of the coolest graphics of the 09/10 season finish off a board that should make it to every serious all-mountain freestylers wish list.

Rossignol Retox

New to the Rossignol line-up last year and taking the under $400 Transworld Good Wood award for the best jib board at the test, this years Retox has got a lot to live up to. If you’re looking for a responsive and poppy jib specific ride pick up the Retox and get toxic.

Rossignol Justice

Jealous of the boys with their Yes snowboard / Rossignol Angus / Nidecker Legacy. Well no need to be anymore! Rossignol have applied their AmpTek to the Justice, the result is a snowboard with tons of pop, buttery spin initiation, catch free straigt-lines, easy presses and effortless float in the deepest of fresh. A great freestyle snowboard for girls who don’t want to be constricted to the park.

Rossignol Diva Mag

Women pushing female snowboarding need a board that can provide all of the cutting edge design and materials that Men’s boards are packing. The Diva Mag has all of the features of the Rossignol One Mag, like Carbon and Kevlar reinforcement, Magne-Traction and a progressive all-mountain directional twin shape but have softened it up slightly with biaxial glass. By all accounts the Diva Mag absolutely flys out of pipe thanks to the unmatched grip courtesy of Magne-traction and the dynamite pop that Carbon reinforcement provides.

Rossignol Big Gun

A beautifully crafted swallow tailed snowboard with cutting edge construction under a stunning bamboo veneer topsheet. Designed for huge carves on untouched faces with effortless float thanks to the long nose and reduced surface area of the tail and impressive chatter free edge hold, the benefit of the huge 12.3m sidecut radius, huge effective edge and dual torsion box quadraxial glass with cabon and kevlar reinforcement.

Rossignol Decoy

Rossignol have struck gold with the Decoy’s new graphics, straight off the beaches of Jamaica, serve with a large dash of Coke and Barbados Rum on the rocks! Expect to see this essential rasta colourway base all over french snowboard parks next season. The Rossignol Decoy is a lively slopestyle snowboard, stiff between the bindings with an aggresive/tight sidecut and poppy nose and tail. The Decoy is perfect for aggresive freestyle snowboarders who want a stiffer park board to ride every feature in the park and the odd backcountry kicker on.
