The Fischer Ranger 98 Ti’s versatility across every type of terrain and snow condition never ceases to amaze our testers. “Short turns, long turns, bumps, whatever—bring it on, these skis are ready for it,” commented Karol Sawa. Mikey Wechsler said they “do it all and do it all well. Bumps, crud, groomers—it doesn’t matter. This is a great everyday, all-mountain western ski.” The ski’s beech and poplar wood core gives it the combination of stiffness and energy that allows it to excel in the aforementioned terrain and conditions. Carbon fiber in the tip reduces chatter on hard snow, titanium inserts boost stability underfoot, and Fischer’s Aeroshape—a convex arc from edge to edge—allows for ultra-quick turn transitions. All hail the Ranger.
