I’ve seen a couple rides like dometopi on these solid purple Fischer skis, but when I asked him what they are he just said “prototype”. Never seen Fischer make a park ski that’s actually flexible. Anyone know what these are?

I know they are coming just dont have any info on the specs or anything like that. I hear they are like the rangers but twins and a bit more flex.

So another five years of them sponsoring three athletes and coming out with a new ski that doesn’t sell well because the guy in charge has to balance what park skiers actually want with what a ski racing corporation expects a ski to be, which leads to the whole project eventually imploding because it can’t compete with smaller park ski brands and the corporation just goes back to focusing energy on more profitable markets like ski touring.

As someone who owns and loves Salomon speedcross shoes, there’s about ten ski companies I’d give my money to for park skis before either Solly or Fischer and I’d imagine I’m not alone in that opinion.

The 1080 graphic prototypes were from a long time ago. Current ones have a white topsheet. 1080 one is 10 times cooler
