RC4 The Curv DTX

Built for high speed at high edge angles, The Curv DTX deploys a triple radius sidecut to accentuate turn entry and exit. This makes it exceptionally agile for such a strong, stable ski. While it’s unabashedly made for experts, The Curv DTX lacks the imposing Booster plate that adorns its stablemate and so is a bit easier to bend at subsonic speeds. The elimination of the Booster plate also opens up the versatility of the ski regarding turn shape and skier style. The Booster all but requires the skier to go all-in on every arc; without it, The Curv DTX feels more playful and willing to carve from a more upright stance.

RC4 The Curv GT

The Curv GT is a Technical ski that begs to be laid over at a 45o angle, a posture the average skier can’t even accidentally achieve. But for the carving cognoscenti who know how to commit to every turn, The Curv GT is a dream, with a particular talent for short turns with a slingshot finish. “Powerful, wonderfully lively, with great rebound,” writes one tester who gets what the Curv GT is all about. “Go all in and it goes all in with you.” If you need additional motivation to acquire this impeccable carving machine, Fischer has carved $100 off the Curv GT’s MSRP, bringing it down to $999, with binding.

Ranger 115 FR

Fischer introduced the Ranger 115 XTi only last year, and already it’s been run through the mild makeover machine. Fischer didn’t tamper with the Ranger’s shape or turn radius, so it retains its affinity for long turns, and it still has the torsional rigidity to latch onto a high edge angle when summoned, but its regular style might be called “authoritative drift;” you may not be riding the edge, but you have everything under control.
