Rossignol Sickle (2012)
Tester's Review
Testers loved the Sickle's self-assurance and versatility, ranking it No. 1 in the critical Balance of Skills criterion. It's a full-rockered, metal-free construction with plenty of width, so no wonder it excels in powder, where it's loose and slashy and startlingly agile for its size (No. 1 in Quickness). But there's enough to it to quiet the crud and other rough conditions, and it eggs its pilot to fly ever faster. Surprisingly fun on groomers, too. "I was perfectly balanced, floating on top of it all," said Lewis. "No problems in crud or hardpack, either."
