Two for two on Buyer’s Guide appearances, the Fischer Ranger 102 FR 2020 is back, unchanged. This playful plank sports a near-twin tip shape with rockered tips and tails, perfect for when a new blanket of fresh falls. Its camber underfoot and an edge-to-edge arc on the surface of the ski–dubbed Aeroshape–provides the power you need to plow through chewed-up crud, making this one of the most versatile skis in the legendary Ranger line. The Ranger 102 FR ain’t picky—she’ll ski anything.

FREESKIER tester thoughts:

“This thing loves to charge. If you want to rip ‘cord in the morning and chase pow in the afternoon, this is your tool.”

“The stability in this ski is hard to beat. Once you’re done floating through all that powder, you can run them through the flats and crud and let them take you for a ride.”
