it means nightengale. however, the logo IS a rooster, the rooster is the national animal in france (like the bald eagle is to the US)

The bird was the shit, rossignol isn't as cool anymore because they ditched it for a lame "R."

the Cockerel (alias Red Junglefowl, when not domesticated) is the national bird of france and it the picture of a cockerel which is derived from a rooster so in a way you are correct

You will not see the rooster from rossignol again. The rooster is actually a symbol from France, and they have some sort of copywright laws on it. In fact, this year, rossignol used the rooster on their telemark series skis, the sick bird etc. in an attempt to use the "retro" look, and apparently they kind of got in trouble for it.

I told the folks at rossignol that they should make a girls twintip, put the rooster on it, and call it the Rossignol Cock. Then all the girls could say that they ride the cock. Look for it in 2007.

someone should make a rooster that fits with the new culture of skiing, like have it with a chained necklace saying "50 Cent eats penises)
