Rossignol 2025-26 Preview: New Alltrack Boots, Arcade All-Mountain Skis and the Sender Free 100

Introduction

Rossignol’s 2025-26 lineup is one of the most significant resets the brand has made in years. The Alltrack boot line has been rebuilt from the ground up with step-in technology borrowed from the Vision series, the long-running Experience name gives way to the new Arcade all-mountain family, and freeride skis like the Sender Free 100 and Soul 102 round out a range aimed at simplifying choices rather than adding them. Here is what matters most about each piece.

Rossignol Alltrack: Step-In Technology Comes to the Line

The Alltrack line has been around for a while, but this is a complete overhaul: new shell, new upper and lower, redesigned liners, and step-in technology carried over from the Vision boots that launched the year before. The back of the boot opens completely wide via a spoiler and steel spine mechanism, and instead of a double buckle you simply pull a cord to release the system. As you buckle the boots and lean forward, the mechanism locks itself back into place, so if you forget to switch into ski mode, the boot does it for you.

On the hill, the goal was a stronger skiing boot than its predecessor. Plastic density has been increased, most aggressively on the 130 flex, which the brand acknowledges previously felt a little soft for a flagship freeride boot. The line offers 98, 100, and 102 lasts, covering low, mid, and high volumes, with tech fittings on the 100 and 98 last models. The 102 last boots add a Boa closure, though the lowest-priced women’s boot skips it to keep the price down. The men’s range is intentionally simplified to 90, 110, and 130 flexes.

The Arcade Family Replaces Experience

Arcade is now Rossignol’s all-mountain family for men and women, built on the 88 and 84 that arrived last year and expanded with a complete collection. The lineup spans a cap-construction entry level up through the flagship models, with the women’s 94 sharing construction with the unisex men’s 94.

Arcade 94

The 94 is the balance point of the family, combining the 88 and 84 into one ski. It offers stability at speed for big, carving turns, but with a little more pop and energy, and a slightly softer overall feel than the 88. A matching Pivot 15 binding in a purple and gold colorway is available, including a 130 brake for the wider 118.

Arcade 88

The 88 is the big-turn ski of the family, built for Super G and GS style arcs at speed with a stable, planted character.

Arcade 84

The 84 is the more playful option, snappy and lively underfoot, and it will be available both flat and as a system binding package.

Sender Free 100

The Sender Free 100 borrows the rocker profile, tail shape, and tip profile of the Sender Free 110 but narrows to 100mm underfoot. Like its bigger sibling, it is stout underfoot with a supple tip and tail, producing a huge bend around the body that lets strong skiers rip arcs and put the ski on edge hard. It sits more on the freeride side of the family compared with the easier-skiing Soul 102, and pricing has been kept aggressive for a crowded 100mm class.

Compared with the older Black Ops 98, it carries more rocker, so it sits a bit higher off the snow, slides more smoothly, and releases from a turn at speed rather than demanding constant engagement. It is made in one unisex graphic across six sizes from 164 to 190.

Sender Free 110

The 110 is the ski the Sender Free 100 was built from: stiff underfoot, very soft tip and tail, a big-bend freeride platform for skiers who want the widest version of that character.

The Soul Line: Soul 102 and Soul 92

Soul is the directional, easier-going counterpart to the twin-tip Sender Free line. The Soul 102 sits on top of the snow, pivots easily, slides, and lets you break away from a turn when you want to. It suits everyone from intermediate skiers up to intermediate-expert riders who want something light on its feet that does whatever you ask.

The Soul 92 carries the same approach in a narrower package for skiers who mostly stay on firmer snow and want that easy, forgiving character.

Black Ops 98

The Black Ops 98 was a powerful, driven ski with a locked-in feel, but it was a demanding, tiring ski to ride hard. The Sender Free 100 takes over that slot in the line with a freerider edge: more rocker, smoother sliding, and speed-checking ability the old 98 did not offer.

Which Rossignol Ski or Boot Is Right for You

If you want stability at high speed with some playfulness, the Arcade 94 is the all-rounder; the Arcade 88 rewards big committed turns, and the Arcade 84 favors quick, snappy skiing. In the freeride range, the Sender Free 100 suits strong skiers who want power in a 100mm platform, while the Soul 102 and Soul 92 are the friendlier, easier-pivoting choices. On the boot side, the new Alltrack is worth trying if easy entry and a reliable walk mode matter, and the 130 flex version is now noticeably more powerful than before.

Conclusion

Rossignol’s 2025-26 range is less about adding products and more about making the right one easier to find. A fully redesigned Alltrack boot line, a coherent Arcade all-mountain family, and clearly differentiated freeride options like the Sender Free 100 and Soul 102 give skiers of nearly every level a straightforward pick.
