Re: The Fischer Drought

I'd been hoping to see some updates on the Excursion 88's as they became available through the winter, which apparently hasn't happened. My plan was to get my wife a new pair of metal edged skis to replace her old Salomon Snowscape 7's, and the T78'S looked to be the ticket. My me-plan was a new and...

I'm pretty sure I have the same skis down in the basement that I got from sportsman's guide 12 or so years ago for $29 delivered. Mine came with an odd & complicated hybrid binding that I think was meant to u...

Re: Fischer inventorry replenishment

Stephen: Thank you for spotting and sharing the link to the Traverse 78 package at Ski Essentials!! Bought my wife a pair of them in 176 a few weeks ago and have been searching without success for a 196 pair for me. Figured for sure it would have to wait until 2022-2023 catalog items become availabl...
