Is this years Rossi S7 ( not super 7) tail stiffer than years past?
I flexed the s7 today at a store and they felt stiffer than years past. They were stiffer than the atomic automatic for sure....
I only ask because I loved the s7, but moved away from it because it loved to wheelie on high speed runouts!
I would go back to the s7 if I could because I loved that ski, but it needed a little more stiffness. The super 7 was stiff but too heavy...

2012 2013 ROSSIGNOL S7 TAIL STIFFNESS QUESTION
Someone shoulda warned him that no matter how brutal winter or summer can be, a bad post on TGR can be almost impossible to weather once the shitstorm breaks loose.
Or worse, the "Shitnado"!
No, a shiticane.

Hand flexing twin tips in a shop is always tricky, tails with a lot of rocker can be misleading....

S7 and Super7 are the exact same skis this year with different graphics. The new Squad 7 has much more of a tail than the other two skis.

I had the same problem as you, always wanting to wheelie out from under me. Then I got out of the back seat and haven't had that issue anymore lol

Damn you quiver adders!!!!!!!!!!
I need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....

The S7 reminds me of the old blue noodle, like grandmas undies in the wind on the clothesline...........
