The Elite series Rossignol’s high performance boot line. Every innovation in boot design that Rossignol has innovated has been integrated into these boots. The Activator system has a soft plastic insert in the shell that stores energy when the boot is flexed and then gives it back when the boot moves back to neutral position. This gives the boot amazing rebound and energy. The Active Sole helps absorb shock and impacts without sacrificing precision and performance. The Bandit 2 was designed for advanced skiers who want a boot that is forgiving but still very high performance that provides plenty of opportunity for their skills to progress.
