Description
Sbound 98 are among the broadest off-track cross-country skis from Fischer. The sidecut dimensions of these backcountry touring skis are 98/69/88. Opting for these skis guarantees stability and control across various snow conditions. Their width ensures that you remain atop deep snow more effectively than with regular, narrower cross-country skis. Additionally, they feature the Nordic Rocker Camber design, which means the tips are slightly elevated to optimise gliding properties in deep snow.
This edition is crafted with crowns—a pattern in the kick zone area—that provide good grip without the need for kick waxing. To further enhance grip, you can add the Easy Skins (sold separately). Skins are among the most effective solutions for acquiring grip when skiing off-track.
The steel edges will ensure control on icy, hard-packed snow surfaces.
Recommended: Select a ski that matches the skier's weight, and choose a ski length approximately 5–15 cm longer than the individual's height.

"Excellent skis. Great for powder days and for XCD skiing. Significant incut makes for easy turning. The downside is that you sacrifice kick and glide performance on the flats. It all depends on what you want. Super fast shipping to the USA. I received the skis less than a week after placing my order. Had them mounted by SkatePro, and that was also done well." | |
