 This is the Fisher Progressor F18. A lot of our testers were surprised how well it handled for the price point at only £4.95. It represents great value for money. It uses a dual radius side cut so in the tip it's got a much tighter side cut So it makes it nice and quick and responsive into the turn, but underneath the foot it's a little longer So it makes it nice and stable through the middle to the end of the turn It uses air tech so it uses strategically milled channels out of the base of the core Just to keep the core lightweight, keep the ski nice and playful, nice and renewable but without affecting the structural integrity of the ski at all. It uses carbon text too so carbon is weaved across the core and it just improves power down to the ski's edge, increases the ski's ability to dampen vibrations and just keeps the responsiveness levels up too Also it's got a slightly thinned out profile towards the ski's edge, they call it razor shape Basically it's just reducing weight at the ski's edges, again just improving the agility of the ski and the handling The kind of skier who could go out on this is really varied You could put someone who's looking to improve their carving skills Or you could put a decent skier who just wants to have fun blasting around the piece Unlike some performance skis or higher end piece skis, it's not tiring on the leg so you can skier it all day and you won't be knackered by the end I've just got off the new Fisher Progressor F18s, it's a nice sunny morning here but the piece is still nice and firm On the slightly steeper slopes the F18's brilliant just controlling your speed The nice soft tips just allow you to control your turn shape When I've got it on to something a bit more gentle, a bit more shallow You could really open it up in the nice stiff tails, give you all the support, all the warmth that you needed out of the turn I think this is going to be a brilliant ski for advanced piece skiers Looking at a nice, light, nimble, agile ski Without being too heavy, without being too tiring, like some of our more advanced skis in the range
