Rossignol HERO MT CA K Ski Set + NX12 Bindings

The Rossignol HERO MT CA K + NX12 binding is an alpine ski package designed for discerning on-piste skiers looking to improve their skills without sacrificing skiing enjoyment. Inspired by competition standards, it is aimed at intermediate-advanced and expert skiers who want to combine precision, control, and responsiveness on groomed runs. Carbon reinforcements in the construction make it more accessible while maintaining dynamic performance. This set also includes NX 12 Konect GW bindings, making it a complete and cohesive solution right out of the box.

A performance-oriented piste ski, combining versatility and precision

The Rossignol HERO MT CA K + NX12 Bindings Ski Pack is designed primarily for use on groomed slopes, with a clear focus on performance and line control. Its 74 mm waist width places it in the narrow ski category, tailored for grip on hard snow and quick edge changes. The turning radius ranges from 12 m to 16 m depending on the length chosen, offering true versatility between tight, responsive turns and wider, more committed turns. This range of turning radii allows the ski to adapt to a variety of riding styles, from light giant slalom to tight sequences on moguls or technical slopes.

Profile and grip: a piste-oriented camber with a slight rocker at the tip

The profile chosen for this ski is a Piste Rocker, meaning a traditional camber that dominates most of the base, complemented by a slight rocker at the tip. This technical design promotes crisp edge grip and direct power transfer on packed snow, while making it easier to initiate turns thanks to the raised tip. The sintered base improves glide and wax absorption, contributing to long-lasting performance. The oversized sidecut enhances edge grip during carving and offers increased stability during controlled skids.

Construction: wood, carbon, and fiberglass core for a well-balanced feel

The construction of the Rossignol HERO MT CA K + NX12 Bindings ski pack is based on several complementary elements that define its behavior on snow:

• PEFC-certified poplar wood core: ensures a balance between shock absorption, elasticity, and lightness, for a smooth yet responsive ride.
• Carbon Beam: a layer of carbon placed underfoot that guarantees stability, torsional resistance, and precise grip when exiting turns.
• Fiberglass (V-Fiber Glass): a structural reinforcement that contributes to the ski’s overall stability and power transfer.
• Rectangular Full Sidewall Construction: vertical sidewalls that directly transfer pressure from the foot to the edges, for a crisp and precise response.
• LCT (Line Control Technology): eliminates unwanted counter-flex to maintain constant stability and line control throughout the turn.

NX 12 Konect GW Bindings: Power transfer and expanded compatibility

The NX 12 Konect GW bindings included in this pack ensure solid power transfer between the boot and the ski, while smoothly absorbing shocks to maintain comfort and reduce muscle fatigue. Their Full Action toe piece design allows for an upward release independent of the heel, which improves safety during complex falls. They are compatible with traditional Alpine soles (ISO 5355 A) as well as GripWalk soles (ISO 23223), making them adaptable to the majority of ski boots on the market. The compatibility range covers sole lengths from 260 to 375 mm.

This pack is primarily intended for intermediate-to-advanced and expert skiers who mainly ski on groomed runs and want a precise, dynamic tool built with high-quality materials derived from the world of competition. The four available sizes, ranging from 162 to 184 cm, allow skiers to find the length best suited to their build and skiing style.
