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... Read on

The Fisher RC4 SC is an elitist ski designed exclusively for performance. We recommend this model for extremely fit and proficient, expert or competitive riders who want a powerful, or even an explosive ski for ultra-sportive rides on the groomers or in slalom stadiums.

While the Ranger 96 did really well last year, the 98 found it more difficult to score high in snow conditions that required a stiffer ski.
Like the Bonafide, it would probably have done better if the snow conditions had not been so bad. It nonetheless remains a good ski that we would recommend for average to good skiers.

Unfortunately the ski tested was not the right size. The Fisher Progressor 18’s lack of performance and consistency means that it failed to score high in this category.
It’s a shame as the ski has lots of real qualities. Smaller and average sized riders in particular who love turns (small turns and short swings) without pushing it too much. We would like to review it again next year in a bigger size.

The ProSkilab™ reviewers were surprised by the model tested this year compared to the success it had last year. The Fischer RC4 RC is obviously focused on performance, but this year the model sent by Fisher suffered from a preparation problem that made it difficult to give a fair evaluation of the product. We’ll test it again next year.
