Comments about Rossignol Bandit B2 Skis 2007:

So it searved me well, however, the "bounce" was gone super fast. They lay flat on each other after half a season. the tips chiped and became finger graters. If you like to ski hard, pick something else. For advanced skiiers that have a more relaxed approach to skiing, could be good. I mounted tourbindings on them, and did have some fun, but those skiis got tired really fast.

Comments about Rossignol Bandit B2 Skis 2007:

Ok this is a good overall ski but i got talked into buying a ski that i realy didnt want. I now no that this is not a good park ski. Even if your getting this ski because you think that it can give you a good mountain ski and park ski, dont. because thats not it. I got it for that but its primarily just for regular runs and stuff.

Until this year, I always skied my straight skis, never a shaped ski. Then, I got the Rossi B2 Bandits, and, boy, are they stable and quick -- great ride.

Comments about Rossignol Bandit B2 Skis 2007:

Easy to control, smooth ride, handled powder at the top of the mountain and spring skiing at the bottom! I loved these skis. I would have given them 5 stars, but this is the first pair of skis I've owned, I've always rented, so I don't have a lot of experience.

Comments about Rossignol Bandit B2 Skis 2007:

If you only have one ski, this is the one to have. Great in all conditions, except only passable on ice. Mine is a 174cm, which seems perfect for my 5'-10" and 190#s. After 27 years, this is my first shaped ski and I love it. My last skis were 203cm Dynastar Vertical Assaults, which you had to do everything right on or you were in trouble. The B2 Bandits are so forgiving, even when I screw-up, I don't go down.

Comments about Rossignol Bandit B2 Skis 2007:

I have 8 days on my new skis and have ridden powder, ice, crud, hard groomers and it performs very well on everything you throw at it. No moguls to try them on yet but they should be good to go. Evo also had a great price on them.

These guys really track well, no chatter, extremely quick and responsive, and very cool graphics too! I just skied on them two times this weekend, but I'm very happy with them. Can't wait to try them on some fresh powder!
