The Rossignol EXP is a versatile directional all-mountain board built to handle everything from playful butters to blasting through choppy snow with ease. Featuring camber underfoot for solid edge hold and control, and a rockered nose and tail for added float and a fun, forgiving ride, the EXP strikes a perfect balance between stability and playfulness. A softer nose paired with a stiffer tail gives it that directional power without feeling too aggressive.

Our snowboard reviews are designed to help you weigh tradeoffs to find the best fit. We collaborate with riders and gear experts to review each snowboard based on carving (how well the board turns on its edge and slices through the snow without skidding), speed (how easy it is to go fast), and switch (the ability to ride with either foot forward). We update our rankings weekly based on SidelineSwap sales data.
