Expert reviews 1
The Rossignol Retox is a medium-flex park board based on traditional full camber, a proven product kept in the lineup for over ten years. Powerful pop and stable edge holding are its characteristics, and it's an all-round park board that handles carving as well as park. Strong snap response gives it some resistance in buttering and jibbing, making it suited to intermediate and advanced park riders.
Base shape (camber)
Camber
Rossignol's Amptech Elite camber profile — traditional full camber from contact point to contact point. With no rocker, pure camber provides pop, precision and power, and the nose and tail feel comparatively stiff.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A middle flex overall. The centre of the board is exactly mid-level, and with no rocker the nose and tail feel somewhat stiffer. Torsional flex is consistently mid-level too — foot steering remains possible.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Strong pop and snap can produce unpredictable responses for beginners, and controlling the resistance and strong spring during buttering and jibbing takes a degree of skill. It's best for intermediate to advanced park riders.
Good
- ✓Powerful pop and snap provide excellent performance on jumps and in the air
- ✓A 264mm mid-wide waist means no boot-out issues
- ✓High stability from traditional camber provides trustworthy edge holding on both jump lines and carves
- ✓A compact size makes swing weight light, easing technique execution
- ✓It delivers impressively good carving performance despite being a park board
Not so good
- —Strong resistance and spring response during buttering and jibbing make control demanding
- —The nose holds excessively during rail slides, with possible injury risk
- —The absence of rocker makes response strong, which can be demanding for beginners
