Post a pic of the serial number and I'll get you the construction/type of ski you have. There were a handful of different construction typesGot them yesterday and they are now ready to hit the slopes ...
Were used only during the training runs at the World Cup in Bromont , Canada , in 1986 .
210 cm ... or is it 213 ?
I can't find the length on the skis but it looks 210 compared with other 210 around . Strange that a length is not similar from one manufacturer to the other !
Voilà !
If it is warmer than the -40 we have now , I will ski them tomorrow !
Got three more to show you ... other brands , same state of preservation , all skiable at full speed ...

They are 210 CM the 210 is in the photo but Rossi would measure the running surface up around to the tip, not cord length tip to tail. The ski may measure 207 cord length.Here is the serial number ...
If you are right , I will know the value of the seller's informations ...
I am always skeptic about what people tell me about their skis but , still , that pair is as good as when it was shipped out of the factory .
Thank you !

OK you have a 210cm (as @Uncle-A correctly ID'd) GS ski from 1986 from the 6P, the 33 is the race room construction type, with the serial #09790. So you did get a Race Room set.Here is the serial number ...

Does this belong in "All Things Dynastar"?
The Rossignol SM VAS - I had a pair of those in maybe 1978? They were smooth on the groomed, but 203cm was long for me. Thanks for showing these. I have looked through the Rossignol posts and this the first time I have seen them. I also had ST 650 and used ROC 550.
The V.A.S. didn't come out until 82 or so...when had a run of blue skis....then went back to silver then...things got exciting when the teal grean 4S came out.The Rossignol SM VAS - I had a pair of those in maybe 1978?

Yes, 1982 that Vibration Absorbing System (VAS) was available in the top of the line Rossi skis. It was a joint project that started in 1978 between Rossignol and the French Government Nuclear Labs at Grenoble. VAS was a Neoprene strip that had 40 thin wires running through it and was placed in different parts of the ski depending on the flex desired for that ski. I a very early thread here that members put up questions and other members tried to answer, this was one of the questions put up about who was the Rossignol partner to develop the VAS and I never went back to put up the answer.The V.A.S. didn't come out until 82 or so...when had a run of blue skis....then went back to silver then...things got exciting when the teal grean 4S came out.
Who's Ross jacket is that in the background?

That ski is about 10 - 12 years older than the ROC so my guess is that they are not anything like the ROC. The ROC was a great GS ski, a metal sandwich ski, the early ones were wood core and the later ones I think were foam core. The age of those Solomon bindings may give you a better clue of the age on the ski. I am not familiar with that model Solomon maybe another member can share something on the binding. @Bill Talbot may be that guy for the bindings.Can't wait to ski on these! Anyone know the year? I suspect 1965 at the latest .anyone ski on these kind? Wondering if they are similar to the ROC? View attachment 41188
The infamous Allias Major was maybe one of the first metal sandwich GS skis. Certainly early to mid 60's thereCan't wait to ski on these! Anyone know the year? I suspect 1965 at the latest .anyone ski on these kind? Wondering if they are similar to the ROC? View attachment 41188
