I found the ski to be smoother, less prone to being upset by late-day choppy and chunky snow, and even more stable at top speed (and the old 88 was no slouch). Hopping back and forth between the two revealed how thoroughly the ski has changed: whereas the old 88 prioritized quickness and had a more playful pop to it, the latest Experience ups the ante in speed, power, and precision.

Below we break down the Experience 86 Ti’s performance. But if you prioritize speed, dampness, and satisfying, arching turns, the Experience likely won’t disappoint. It’s decidedly a frontside design-definitely more so than the outgoing 88 Ti-and has lost a little of its all-mountain friendliness. We gave a thorough test to the latest 86 Ti model with a set of Look 14-DIN bindings and were impressed with the new ski’s carving abilities and all-around smoothness. Rossignol has shaken up their ski offerings a fair amount over the past couple years, starting with the release of the Black Ops freeride line and now a big revamp to the Experience collection for 2022.
