Skied my new 188 Fischer 115FRs in our 9" of snow today. Wow!! What a fantastic ski. Amazing how you can pivot that ski in steep, narrow, moguled, chutes with a lot of nice fresh snow on it!
Following on this post. It is interesting that Blister found the 115 to be a "bit unwieldy in tight terrain". I don't get that impression and I am not a big guy 6' 170. Maybe there where changes made to the ski from 2018 to 2022?Skied my new 188 Fischer 115FRs in our 9" of snow today. Wow!! What a fantastic ski.

Most skis that width have more rocker, more taper and softer tips/tails than the Ranger 115FR.Following on this post.

seems they took everything I liked about the current 102 FR, and removed it, so.. new 102FR is as meeeeeeeeeeh a ski as 94FR always was.
not that easy since entire europe seems to be sold out.The question is when they go on deep discount, if any in the length you want are available, do you stockpile.........?
There has never been a ski I "stockpiled" that I skied a year or two later and was thankful I did. Enjoy the moment and start looking for your next ex favorite ski.do you stockpile.........?

I am sorry, but did you read many of the previous posts from the people who condemned the ski before even skiing it? Rational level headed thinking has no place in this discussion.I would highly recommend that you actually ski the new Ranger 102 before making a judgment. I was very concerned that Fischer would "ruin" a good run on a very good ski. The new 102 is a worthy replacement, I find that I much prefer all the new Rangers to the skis that they replace.
