Product Info
Weighing in at only 1200 grams (170 cm), the Fischer Transalp 88 is the ultimate ascend-er. Achieving the perfect balance between uphill and downhill performance with a Paulownia wood core and an Air Tec Titanal design, this ski will allow you to make your tours longer, higher and further without straining your legs and lungs any more than a casual Sunday stroll in the park. The added 8 cm to the waist coupled with the Tour Rocker provides extra float in powder and keeps you on top of deep snow when breaking trail. With the extreme torsion stability of the lightweight Aeroshape, the Fischer Transalp Skis are for the serious mountaineer who commands supreme performance.

Terrain
Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.
