SENDER PRO OPEN

The Rossignol Sender Pro Open is a junior freeride ski for moving beyond the groomer and exploring bumps, trees and softer snow. Its 90–92 mm platform offers substantially more surface area than the small Sender Kid-X, with a 136–176 cm size range for growing skiers. A playful outline and progressive rocker favor steering and releasing turns as terrain changes.

A paulownia wood core and fiberglass keep the construction focused on manageable weight and elastic response. Rectangular full sidewalls transmit pressure to the edges, while VAS damping addresses vibration. Tip-and-tail rocker and a progressive sidecut allow carved turns to give way to drifts and smears. The sintered base balances glide and durability. Open identifies a flat ski, so the binding and mounting setup are selected separately.

Choose it for an intermediate or advanced junior who already controls speed and wants a wider freeride platform. It supplies more soft-snow support than a narrow piste ski, at the cost of slower edge changes on hardpack. Its lightweight construction also has a different feel from a heavily reinforced adult freeride ski through rough snow. Radius varies from 9 to 20 metres across the range, so length changes the turning brief as well as the fit.
