Like the Völkl Racetiger GS, the Rossignol Hero Elite LT is a muscular ski that follows turning commands with the obedience and precision of a dressage horse.  If groomers are your territory and speed is your best friend, the Hero Elite LT Ti belongs in your ski locker.

There’s an ineffable ease to the Elite LT’s flow down the hill.  As Zac Larsen of The Lift House noted during our 2014 spring technical test fling: “Easy to ski great,” which is one way to describe what everyone is looking for in a new ski.  Larsen added, “Held at speed!” with the exclamation point evidence that a ski so simple to guide shouldn’t be so unbudgeable at ballistic speeds.

The Elite LT Ti is so mellow it permits you to drift without protest, but it’s so exhilarating to give it the gas that you won’t want to scrub speed until the lift line.  If the mountain is a 3D theme park, then the Elite LT Ti is fun cubed. Enjoy the math.
