Rossignol Evo Glade AR Ski

When new snow falls, grab Rossignol's Evo Glade AR Skis and enjoy the untracked wilderness. Rossignol designed these Nordic planks so you can break trail through variable snow conditions. The wood and air core provides lightweight stability and Rossignol's compact length makes the skis easier to handle in tight spots (like glades) and holds your speed back a bit when you’re heading downhill. The Activ Cap construction blends a flexible cap with multidirectional fiberglass so the tip and tail float and glide without sacrificing directional stability.

Bottom Line: Big on fun, short on size.

Write your question here..I am buying cross country skis for the 1st time and don't know what length to get in this style because my weight is 145lbs.+ or - a few. Should I err on the side of longer or shorter?

I would say go for the 186 in this size. The size that would best fit you is 176 in these skis but they don't seem to be available. You're better off going longer then shorter.

I'd say I was an intermediate classic skier, with a 64 year-old back who prefers rolling groomed and tracked conditions. I'll happily give up speed for control and good climbing ability. Buck naked, I weigh 200 pounds; add clothes and a day-pack, I'd be around 215-220. I have a pair of Fischer Crowns (217X 60/55/55 that seem long and floppy. Suggestions? Recommendations for a boot-binding-ski combo. I live in Maine so conditions are "variable."

If your Fischers seem long and floppy, I'd steer clear of these. The Evo's are very long and wide as they're made for trail breaking, non-track skiing. As a fellow North Easterner, they work well in the snow we get, but they just don't seem like they are what you are looking for.

These are my most recent pair of XC skis. They are long and wide, made for more off-track and rolling conditions. I ski mostly in Vermont and the Adirondacks, not the greatest conditions but these skis are very effective for what they do. I have Rossignol NNN bindings and X2 boots, a great combo. You won't be skating like Ole Einar Bjoerndalen or Emil Svendsen, but they are great beginner to intermediate boots.

these are perfect skis for what i'm looking for.(i hated my old skis)i do both track skiing and ungroomed trails.very stable on untracked snow. they are great when the groomed tracks are damaged to, very forgiving. they'd actually be really good for a beginner since they don't rocket down the groomers like classics and they are pretty easy to turn.

Hi-I do a fair amount of cross country skiing in a variety of conditions from fresh snow to packed to track set. Are these skis fair versatile??? I'm looking to replace some Rossi Enos "Tour PosiTracks. I really liked them but one blew a way in a wind storm and I could not find it. Looking forward to your input.Marty

If you are a beginner then don't go higher than your chin or so if you have skis that are fairly new. If you are intermediate than go from your chin to your nose.

I don't know that its fair for me to judge these ski's, since I wasn't the one using them. However, I watched my wife use them all day and got alot of input from her so what the hey, I'll give you our collective opinion.
Today was my wifes first time ever on skis. The Rossi Evo's worked great for her. We spent the whole day on an ungroomed, but well used trail in pretty slick snow conditions. They seemed to be pretty sure footed on the up (especially for a beginner), and helped to keep her speed down on the descent. I would have liked to see a little better glide out of them than I did ( I would coast on by on the down and have to stop and wait, or stay in a constant snow plow while she worked herself down).
All in all I would say that they were a very stable and controllable ski for the beginner. There were no problems in the turns and she only ate the trail twice on a first ever 12K runabout.

Three questions:1. Are these suitable for a beginner? I plan to ski trails and some light backountry with overnight pack. 2. Do you fit the bindings (I take it nnn bindings are the go)?3. Do you ship these to Australia (cost of shipping?)

I can answer 1 and 2. They're great beginner skis (1), and the nnn bindings will do nicely (2). I can't speak to Backcountry.com's shipping policy.

How do I know what length I need? Are these good for a beginner? I'm an above average alpine skier but want to get into the backcountry a little more. I'm not interested in going as burly as an AT or Tele setup and these seem like a happy medium...thoughts?
