I've taken a few pairs of Rossignols out over the last couple of years and have been very impressed with them all (though not quite impressed enough to tempt me away from my usual Germanic purchases of Volkl and Fischer).
I haven't skied on Heads though. So I'm about as able to compare the two as you are...

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

comprex is spot on
I don't know much about the Head, but the Rossi Z3 is pretty much a beginner to intermediate ski (more beginner), if you are an intermediate to advanced skier you will find the ski to be too flexible and not stable enough at high speeds. I have a pair of z9, awesome ski, or go for the z5 (z6 this season i think?).

fess, we -know- your budget is limited. We -know- you are 110lbs and signed up for a school team.
We are asking whether the shops near you have any junior race skis in any brand whatsoever instead of cruisy skis for someone's wife.

Oh, you're dealing with Skis and Biikes, good.

The RX9s you link to are a worthy ski for sure; they are an adult ski tho. I must admit I was thinking more along the lines of junior race skis (in the longer lengths, but still junior flex).
