Men's freeride skis Sender Free 110 Open

The Sender Free 110 is Rossignol's big-mountain freeride weapon, and it's one of the more interesting skis in the 110mm class. Where most 110mm skis are either stiff-and-stable or soft-and-playful, the Sender Free 110 does both -- just in different zones.

Underfoot, it's stiff. The Titanal Beam running through the center provides real edge grip and rebound. At speed in variable snow, this center section keeps the ski tracking and predictable. But move toward the tips and tails, and the ski softens dramatically. The Air Tip hollows out the shovel for reduced swing weight and effortless flotation. The tail is similarly soft, making it easy to release turns, land switch, and butter off rollers.

This stiff-center-soft-extremity design is what makes the Sender Free 110 special. It charges like a big-mountain ski but plays like a freestyle ski. Two independent ski tests both noted that it works for everything from steep couloirs to resort sidecountry to park-adjacent freestyle.

The Carbon Alloy Matrix is a Rossignol proprietary layup that combines carbon and basalt fibers in a diagonal weave. It adds torsional stiffness and damping without the weight of a full titanal layer. Combined with the poplar core and light topsheet construction, the result is 2,200g per ski at 184 -- reasonable for a 110mm ski with this much construction.

The twin tip shape means you can ski switch, land backwards, and generally play around. The 20m radius at 184 is appropriate for the width -- it doesn't force tight turns that a 110mm ski doesn't want to make.

Unchanged from 2025. If you liked it last year, you'll like it this year -- same shape, build, and ride. Flat mount only.

This is the ski for the advanced-to-expert freeride skier who wants to push into bigger terrain without losing the ability to play. If you live somewhere that consistently gets 100+ inches, this could be your daily driver. For PNW mountains like Hood, Bachelor, and Baker, this is a strong 2nd ski for deep days.
