2022 Rossignol Force 7 Cross Country Ski Poles

The Force 7 is a performance-oriented cross country pole designed for fitness skiers and racers who want a lightweight, efficient swing without sacrificing durability. It sits firmly in the race-inspired category, offering a responsive feel for strong poling on groomed tracks.

Why we like it:

We like how the high carbon content keeps swing weight low while still delivering a solid, confident plant. It feels quick and efficient in motion, which matters over longer distances and at higher tempos.

Features and Functions:

The 70 percent carbon shaft reduces overall weight while maintaining enough stiffness to transfer energy cleanly through each pole plant, so power does not get lost between your hands and the snow. A natural cork grip manages moisture well and stays comfortable over long efforts, while also providing a more precise connection compared to softer foam options. The race basket is compact and optimized for groomed conditions, keeping swing weight minimal and pole recovery quick and efficient.

Bottom Line:

Lightweight and responsive, the Force 7 is a race-inspired cross country pole built for efficient power transfer and fast, consistent movement on groomed terrain.
