Rossignol 2012 Temptation 74 Women's Skis w/Bindings

Sale: $399.00
Retail: $500.00

Save 20%
For progressing intermediates spending most of their time on groomed runs, the Temptation 74 is ideal. With early rise tips and cap construction, this ski is maneuverable and lightweight, but the core is made of wood so it is also dense enough to be stable carving at high speeds and plowing through crud and choppy snow. These skis also come with a Saphir 90 women's binding, which is not a unisex binding, but actually a binding/plate system designed to aid female skiers progress (more info on this in the details below).
Appropriate ability levels. The L9 Listers say: Cruiser Rich (L9 Owner) says: Classic/Timeless The L9 team says: Family Ski Trip Products Video

Free Binding Mounting. Please choose your binding from the dropdown list on this page, other bindings may not be compatible.

Free L9 Poles: A little love from L9 to you in the form of a free composite Levelninesports.com ski pole. A comparable pole retails for $60 and we sell these for $24 normally. This free pole is for a few select skis as a little sweetener on the already lowest price.

Saphir 90 Bindings: Specifically designed to have a shorter track interface (for lighterweight), and a raised heel, this binding was made to help female skiers rip with a lower center of gravity and less fatigue at the end of the day.

Ideal Target Skier: Progressing Intermediate: This skier is pushing the limits of the intermediate badge, and getting off trail and figuring out how to get comfortable at higher speeds through variable terrain.

Cascade Tip: This tip is defined as "[using] varying shapes of metal and fiberglass laminates at staggered lengths to provide a lighter extremity. The unique layered shapes control tip torsion which smoothes out turn initiation and improves full edge contact. The lighter weight tip improves the swing weight of the ski for quick and adaptable turn initiation." We could not possibly have described it any better than that.

Auto Turn Camber: Rossignol's Auto Turn rocker profile is 70% flat camber, and 30% early rise, which means that these skis are going to hold an edge strong, and should be skied mostly on hardpack--but with the raised tips, plowing through crud and powder is definitely do-able.


Wood Core: The standard core which has throughout time provided the best performance and durability. Each model may have it's own density level to help define flex and maximum speed but every wood core ski will be solid.


Tip Rocker: This refers to the early rising of the tip to get the ski on top of the soft snow, rather than pushing through it. When the skis are held with the bases together, it will look like the tips are bent, and spread away from eachother. Tip rocker also helps skiers pivot the skis, making tight trees remarkably easy, and gives the ski a surf-like feel.

Metal Tip Protectors: These skis have rugged tip protectors made of metal that will help fight against chipping and damage to the tips, which is both a performance and cosmetic benefit.
