Rossignol Sender soul 92 — Review

The Rossignol Sender soul 92 is new for the 26-27 season — a playful all-mountain ski at 92 mm underfoot that adds Rossignol's Line Control Technology (LCT) to the soul-series chassis for the first time. It pairs a poplar wood core with a metal layer underfoot, fiberglass laminates, an Air Tip (perforated tip section) and a Twin Rocker profile (rocker / camber / rocker), available in six lengths from 142 to 182 cm.

At 92 mm underfoot with a 125/92/115 sidecut at 166 cm and a 15 m radius, the Sender soul 92 is built for mixed-condition resort skiing where most of the day is on or near the piste. The Twin Rocker profile keeps tip and tail loose for pivoting in trees and chop while the camber underfoot — reinforced by a metal layer and the new LCT vertical ABS spine — holds an edge on firm groomers. At 1400 g per ski at 166 cm it sits in the lighter half of the metal-underfoot all-mountain class, favouring quickness and low swing weight over plough-through stability. The Air Tip's perforated tip section drops swing weight further and helps the ski feel lively at intermediate-to-advanced speeds.

The Sender soul 92 uses a poplar wood core with metal underfoot (a partial titanal layer focused on the binding zone), fiberglass laminates for torsional stiffness, Line Control Technology (LCT) — a vertical ABS spine running tip-to-tail that's NEW to the soul series for 26-27 and dampens chatter on firm snow — an Air Tip (perforated tip section that drops swing weight), and a sintered base for durability and wax retention. Profile: Twin Rocker (Rocker / Camber / Rocker) with playful tip and tail and camber underfoot. Verified sidecut at 166 cm: 125/92/115 mm, 15 m radius, 1400 g per ski. Available lengths: 142, 150, 158, 166, 174, 182.

The Sender soul 92 targets intermediate-to-advanced skiers who want one ski for groomer days, side-hits and softer-snow excursions — without committing to a heavy charger. Compared to the Rossignol Sender 94 it's positioned as the lighter, more playful sibling in the same 92-94 mm class (Sender 94 is the directional metal chassis, Sender soul 92 is the looser, more pivot-friendly one). The wider Rossignol Sender soul 102 is the soft-snow upgrade — same playful soul DNA, more float for powder days. The Rossignol Rallybird soul 92 is the women's-construction version with the same shape and waist width but a lighter, softer flex.

Pros

• New-for-26-27 Line Control Technology adds chatter damping the previous soul series lacked.
• Twin Rocker profile keeps tip and tail playful for trees, bumps and pivot-style skiing.
• Air Tip drops swing weight for low-effort turn initiation.
• Six lengths (142-182) cover a wide range of skier sizes and styles.

Cons

• Per-length sidecut and radius data only verified at 166 cm; other lengths likely shift.
• 92 mm waist limits float compared to wider all-mountain options on deeper days.
• Metal underfoot is partial (not a full sheet) — high-end damping ceiling vs. full-metal chargers.
• Twin Rocker with playful tail is less directional than the Sender 94 sibling.

Verdict: A balanced, playful 92 mm all-mountain ski for intermediate-to-advanced resort skiers — choose it over the Rossignol Sender 94 if you want a livelier, more pivot-friendly chassis, or step up to the Rossignol Sender soul 102 if soft-snow days dominate your season.
