2022 SkiTalk Giveaway 5: Rossignol Sender or Rallybird, Toko Core Tuning Kit & Hat, Revo Bode Miller Goggles--WINNERS ANNOUNCED !!

[Teppaz]

The rooster symbol is related to Rossignol's heritage as a French brand (the rooster is on the national soccer and rugby teams' jerseys for example, and on the French ski team's logo). "Iconic rooster logo," it says on the Rossi website!
At least now, I don't think Rossi is officially supplying the French ski team (though of course many racers are individually with the brand, most notably Tessa Worley). The race suits are made by Colmar, an Italian brand.

I kinda think of the rooster as my Rallybird! It sure rallies for me on a storm day.

 

[slowrider]

I've owned more Rossis than any other ski. Have 2 pair at the moment.

I'd say you've been roosterized! I can imagine the design meeting for that jacket: "What do you think of the roosters? Too much?" "NO!"

I'd wear that.

In short, "No such thing as too much coq."

Every one of the posters in this thread needs to go to YouTube and watch some Rancho.

but often too little vin?

Win positive: New skis!

Win negative: Internal debate about which pivots to put on the skis?

In coq/vin lingo, I believe the term is 'Pivotage'

Brilliant.

Technical query is the 118 a Sender or just a BlackOps model this year under Rossi's nomenclature carousel?

regardless you can put me down for the 112 or 118 if you want to start pricing shipping

The BlackOps are not a part of this contest.
This coming year, the Sender series is separate from the BlackOps

 

[crgildart]

If I win I'll buy some bindings from you

Of course. (I would be using the roll-eyes emoji here if I didn't have an active entry in the contest.)

The bases tell a story too.

It was just your copy mentioned 118 and AIUI Rossi have not got the Sender name on that model?

Thank you Rossignol, Skitalk, @Tricia and @Philpug!!!!!
WOW! I never win anything and was actually wondering if a late or early entry was the way to go -- now I can't remember what I did lol.
Apparently "All you have to do is enter" .......

Will have to take some time to think about what ski to select, will certainly get some help from Tricia and Phil
Thank you again - what a wonderful surprise !!!

I wanted to chime in that it was a great "ski talk" last night. Interesting on how everyone tests skis and what they are looking for.

Thank you. It was really fun and what's really crazy is that many of out testers are scattered all over the country so they haven't all had a chance to meet. Last night was a first time meeting (virtually) for most and they really enjoyed the engagement.
