Designed for elite competitors, this unisex package combines the Rossignol HERO FIS SL 157 skis with SPX12 bindings in a setup tailored for competitive slalom. The ski features a rectangular full-sidewall construction and a poplar and beech core to deliver precise line control and direct power transfer on the most technical courses. FIS-certified, it is designed for athletes who demand an immediate response to every push.
With a 12-meter radius and a sidecut profile of 117/66/102 mm, the HERO FIS SL 157 features the narrow geometry typical of alpine racing skis. The full camber ensures maximum rebound when exiting turns and crisp edge grip throughout the turn. The oversized sidecut tip enhances carving power and facilitates quick transitions from one edge to the other—crucial characteristics on a tight slalom course. The integrated R22 World Cup plate contributes to stability at high speeds and ensures direct energy transfer between the skier’s foot and the ski.
The poplar and beech core forms the heart of the structure and provides a balance between lightness and mechanical responsiveness. It is complemented by a layer of Titanal, an aluminum-zinc alloy that increases the ski’s torsional stiffness and improves power transmission during angled turns. The rectangular full sidewall construction, which extends the ski’s sidewall all the way to the edge along its entire length, maximizes contact with the snow and enhances precision during edge changes. The UHD sintered base rounds out the package by offering optimized glide and wear resistance suited for repeated training sessions.
The SPX12 bindings are included in the package to meet competition requirements. The full-action toe piece features a 45 mm elastic travel with 180° multidirectional release, which reduces unintended releases without compromising the skier’s safety. The SPX heel piece, meanwhile, offers 27 mm of elastic travel to absorb shocks and maintain ski-boot contact during acceleration. The DIN release range extends from 3.5 to 12, covering the needs of expert-level athletes. The system is compatible with ISO 5355 A alpine soles as well as ISO 23223 A GripWalk soles.
