Rossignol SAS S5 Barras Skis 2009 : Skis

Rossignol SAS S5 Barras Skis 2009 - Sin number 5 Greed - Rossignol is ready to take you to the ultimate of excess: the SAS S5 Barras Skis. The Rossignol SAS S5 Barras Skis were created with a dual wood core, a hybrid of two separate woods that will make you crave the feel and flex. You will covet the Rossignol SAS S5 Barras Skis weight reducing system patented by Rossignol. The SAS S5 Barras are the future of all mountain skis. Whether it is throwing down switch 10 in the park or skiing bottomless powder, the S5 is all about versatile. The 98mm waist combined with a progressive sidecut gives the rider a huge advantage in soft snow and facilitates hookup on the groomers. The S5 is the KING of "The New School" all mountain skis. With athlete insight and the artistic touch of legend, Will Barras, the Rossignol S5 Barras Skis will have you piggishly hoarding them, which is exactly what Will Barras wanted: “I did a unique piece for both the top-sheet and the base of the ski. As you can see the base of the greed ski shows a man flying in clouds of jewellery and the same man on the top-sheet is willing to die to catch a diamond.”

Will Barras, as a rider and artist, how important are board graphics to you? “I’m not really a rider.... but I like the canvas to be a usable object, a means of transport. So the artwork for me should be an extension of the board or skis dynamic capability, or maybe offer a narrative involving it or the rider. If you look at the greed skis you can see the way the character reaches towards the front of the skis almost like it’s greedy to move forward fast!”
