If you pay any attention to the World Cup, you might notice that Austrian GS skis are on the podium ad nauseum. The RC4 Worldcup RC isn’t as powerful and fall-line focused as a genuine FIS-sanctioned GS, thank goodness, but it gives us mere mortals a sense of what it would be like to have that level of control and authority. It’s particularly exhilarating to drive through a long, banked turn that can’t be broken loose by boilerplate, wind-blown berms or heavy spring slush.
RC4 Worldcup SC
The Fischer RC4 Worldcup SC is the slalom counterpart to the Worldcup RC (reviewed above), built to identical specs except for sidecut and length. As befits a slalom specialist, its turn radius of 13m in a 165cm mimics the mandated shape of a World Cup SL, and it’s available in sizes small enough to make a complete turn inside a cubicle.
RC4 The Curv
The Curv Booster isn’t for an advanced skier looking for technical training wheels. It expects the pilot to have one leg extended and the other tucked up tight, with hips suspended just above the corduroy, setting up for the next exercise in total commitment. Skiers who want carving control that doesn’t require quite this level of athleticism should look at The Curv DTX, built with the same amount of muscle inside but without the supercharger effect of the Booster.
