Fischer Motive 86 review 2016

PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments

A bit more groomer-oriented than its rivals, Fisher’s Motive 86 is a real success story.
Easy to use and very playful, it’s also got great grip and performs well both on and off piste. Less efficient than the Kendo, it remains more intuitive and requires less physical effort or technical skill. It’s an excellent choice for average to excellent skiers looking for enjoyment whatever the conditions or terrain.

Review: Pros

• An intuitive and user-friendly ski
• A stiff (just enough) and stable ski that enhances confidence and speed
• Highly versatile
• Excellent performance on the groomers: excellent hold and good control in turns and skid turns
• Great freeride performance: handles well and remains stable even at high speeds

Review: Cons

• The waist is a bit narrower than most of its competitors, which makes the ski little less efficient in difficult snow (crud, transformed snow or breakable crust) with less flotation in powder

Manufacturer's remarks

Nothing is ever entirely predictable in all mountain skiing.
That’s why Fischer equips its versatile skis with the all mountain Rocker and Air Tec TI technology, making them more efficient and lighter.
It's at home both on and off the slopes.
