2027 Rossignol BC 80 Skin

The Rossignol BC 80 skins are the perfect accessory for your new BC 80 skis. While the skis do have a waxless base and are more than capable of handling a wide variety of terrain and snow conditions, there’s generally a need for more grip, especially if you’re getting into some extreme circumstances. In the fresh snow, the waxless base only works up to a certain point. When you slip back on a stride, it’s pretty frustrating and demoralizing. As if backcountry skiing weren’t hard enough already, when you start slipping, it adds a whole new dimension to the difficulties of Nordic skiing. But for skiers who are either shopping for or have already purchased the Rossignol BC 80, the pre-cut skins are the perfect complement for your soft snow and steep terrain needs. With a pin hole in the tip that holds the skin perfectly in place, you’ll have grip to spare on those pesky uphills where extra traction is required. They’ll keep you from slipping back, and although they don’t glide quite as well as the normal waxless base, they’ll get you down some steeper stuff with ease. That’s actually a nice unexpected bonus of the skins, that they’re able to stay on when descending, it’s kind of like a low gear in your car—if you have to get down something steep, go ahead and leave the skins on for extra control. Backcountry skiers will love the performance and traction of the Rossignol BC 80 skins.
