The ski in details

Built for passionate and avid skiers, the HERO ELITE LT Ti is a full-throttle, long and speed turns inspired race ski designed for technical on-trail skiers. The Line Control Technology (LCT) meets a narrower 71mm waist width and long turn sidecut for optimized edge-to-edge quickness, precision, and power. LCT eliminates counter-flexing for maximum stability and optimized trajectory through the turn for total control of your line.

Technologies

LCT TECHNOLOGY
An evolution of World Cup racing innovation, Rossignol's patented new LCT construction harnesses pure power and energy, delivering fluid stability in all conditions. Featuring a central "power rail" integrated from tip-to-tail, LCT eliminates counter-flexing of the ski to ensure consistently smooth stability and dynamic control of your line.

RECTANGULAR SIDEWALL
RECTANGULAR SIDEWALL constructions feature a horizontal layering of core materials (wood, fiberglass, metal, etc.) combined with full-length vertical sidewalls to deliver optimized edge grip, precision, balance, and power.

ON TRAIL ROCKER
Adapted rocker at tip only. For easier pivoting on flat skis with a smooth and forgiving feel in the turns. The rise is designed so that once the ski is on its edge, the rocker section resumes contact with the snow, so then the ski works in the turn providing full-length edge contact.

POPLAR WOODCORE
The heart of the ski consists of a poplar core together with fiberglass. This gives the ski enormous fluidity and responsiveness. Poplar helps to maintain the ski's lively feel throughout its life.

OVERSIZED SIDECUT
The Oversized sidecut combines the very deep carving ski sidecut with current underfoot widths. The width at tip and tail delivers effective grip as well as power and precision. The underfoot width gives increased control and better hold in turns. Oversize sidecuts offer maneuverability, power and control

TITANAL
This construction type has been proven in competitions. Fiberglass combined with a titanal layer gives the ski more power, grip and extremely high precision in turns.
