Rossignol Escaper 97 Nano | 2024

The Escaper 97 Nano lives up to its name. With a lightweight construction, Rossignol’s signature Air Tip, V-Skin Anchor for easy touring skin application and a boatload of other technology, this ski checks all the boxes for the backcountry enthusiast. Whether it’s your first season going beyond the resort or you’re a seasoned veteran, Rossignol’s Escaper 97 Nano caters to all. Its dimensions are best suited for spring missions or lower tide seasons but can also be effective for routes that call for technical turns and descents. Razor-thin Titanal inserts,0.4-mm thick to be exact, give an extra confidence boost for the charge downhill. Tester Heidi Lauterbach gave us the inside scoop, saying, “Easy ups and nimble downs are the name of this ski’s game. The dimensions worked for variable conditions and would translate well in powder.” Free yourself from the shackles of the lift lines this season with the Escaper 97 Nano.
