Ranger 102 | 2026

The Ranger series returns as Fischer’s flagship freeride collection for 2026, with the 102 mm model positioned as the versatile centerpiece. The Ranger 102 delivers exceptional edge hold through sweeping groomer arcs while maintaining composure in choppy snow, all wrapped in either an eye-catching purple topsheet or a more muted sand topsheet.

Experienced Fischer skiers will immediately recognize the brand’s signature turn shape. The Ranger 102’s extended effective edge allow you to engage early and maintain consistent pressure throughout each turn. A beech and poplar wood core provides the foundation for stability, while strategically placed Titanal beneath the bindings smooths out vibrations and inspires confidence at speed. This construction creates the predictable, locked-in feel that defines Fischer’s approach to ski design.

The Ranger 102’s damp character demands respect in technical terrain. Skiing in bumps and tight trees requires commitment early as this ski resists quick pivots or smeared turns. In contrast, when skied with confidence and precision, these same characteristics reward the rider with an extremely responsive experience that carries energy between turns effortlessly.

Technical skiers seeking a freeride ski that maintains on-piste precision will appreciate the Ranger 102’s familiar feel. Those accustomed to Fischer’s predictable arc and responsive edge hold will find this ski extends those qualities across the mountain. While it sacrifices playfulness for performance, the Ranger 102 excels at both GS and slalom turn shapes whether you’re carving corduroy or powering through variable conditions off piste.
