24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 25/26 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
The Rossignol Revenant is a very stiff, aggressive all-mountain board effectively close to full camber, showing its worth in high-speed carving and on large jumps. Foot fatigue from insufficient vibration absorption, low pop efficiency and low utility in park and jibbing are clear drawbacks.
It's a board suited to advanced camber devotees who enjoy hard riding in high-speed, firm-snow settings.
A closer look

Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid camber
Rosal's Amptech Elite camber profile, made up of 5% micro rocker each at the nose and tail with the remaining 90% traditional camber. It behaves close to full camber in practice, while the micro rocker sections provide ease of turn entry and exit and a little powder float.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A very stiff, consistent flex. Apart from two micro rocker sections it maintains the same stiffness throughout, and high torsional stiffness makes ankle steering difficult and edge-to-edge transitions slow.
Terrain suggested in the review
Rider levels suggested in the review
Advanced
A very stiff board that only responds when actively loaded like traditional camber, showing its worth in high-speed carving and big jumps. High handling difficulty and heavy stamina demands make it unsuitable for intermediates and below.
What the review liked
- ✓It provides powerful edge grip and stability in high-speed carving
- ✓A stiff flex delivers powerful drive, pushing forcefully through chopped and frozen snow
- ✓It absorbs big-jump landings stably and delivers strong pop off large lips
What the review found lacking
- —Insufficient vibration damping makes foot fatigue very high
- —Low pop efficiency yields little boost relative to the input, making it unsuitable for small and medium jumps
- —Press depth is shallow and the board resists strongly during butters and jibs, giving it low park/freestyle utility
- —Slow edge-to-edge transitions reduce short, fast carving and low-speed manoeuvrability
