The Fischer Ranger 96 Skis are perfect for advanced to expert skiers who thrive on both resort and backcountry terrains. They're ideal for those who enjoy a mix of speed and agility, and who appreciate a ski that can handle everything from hardpack to powder.

Expert verdict
The Fischer Ranger 96 Skis are a dream for those who love to push their limits on the mountain. With a 96mm waist, they offer a perfect balance between stability and floatation, making them versatile for various conditions. The titanium-reinforced core provides a solid feel underfoot, while the freeride rocker ensures quick turns and easy maneuverability. These skis are not for beginners, but if you're an advanced skier who enjoys both resort and backcountry adventures, you'll appreciate their agility and confidence across different terrains. Just be mindful of the strong tail if you're not always forward on your skis.

A burly all-mountain ski with a stiff construction and a freeride inspired shape, the Fischer Ranger 96 is built to handle everything on the mountain and loves to be pushed hard and fast. A versatile 96mm waist keeps turns locked in without sacrificing floatation on deeper days, while the titanium reinforced core adds plenty of stability for those who like to go fast.
Key Features:
- Flex Cut – A specially notched section of the ski core under the binding optimizes the flex of the ski.
- Shaped Ti – The intentionally-shaped titanium layer follows the contours of the ski to maximize grip and stability.
- Freeride Rocker – A shorter contact area of the ski allows quick and easy turns while enhancing flotation.

Henry Kvietok tested this product
The Fischer Ranger 96 is the daily driver ski that you reach for when you're not sure what the conditions of the day will be. If there is some fresh powder, these skis have a generous amount of tip rocker that will have you floating to the top. If you're ripping some fresh morning corduroy, these have a stiffer midsection... Read more
Ideal for
- Stiff midsection for good underfoot stability
- Very rockered tip floats the ski up in powder and makes turn initiation easy
- Versatile waist width for a variety of all mountain conditions
Not ideal for
- The rockered tip can be a bit chattery at very high speeds
- It has a rather strong tail which punishes backseat skiing
- For better performance in powder, look to the Ranger 102

The Fischer Ranger has a been a hot topic in the ski industry this season since the whole design got a major overhaul between this season and last.

Erik was great!
5 /5
Erik was very helpful in assisting me to pick out my first pair of skis and ski bindings! I am an intermediate-level skier but have always used rental skis, so when looking to buy my own, I didn't have much of a knowledge-base. Erik was very helpful in answering my questions and with narrowing down which skis would be a good fit for me, taking into consideration my height/weight, skill level, skiing strengths and weaknesses, and price range. Thank you very much, Erik!

This was my first time buying snow sport gear of any kind. Tyler used the information I gave him to give me some really great choices and get me all set up with a board, bindings, and a helmet. He was very responsive to my questions and had recommendations for sizes and settings that I would not have been able to figure out on my own. He was great!

Brandon Nailed My Snowboard Setup!

Brandon was awesome! He helped me choose the perfect snowboard gear, a Burton Cartographer with boots and bindings. He made sure everything fit perfectly and even scored me a great deal. Super pumped with my setup, the setup worked perfect for Midwest and East coast riding! Thanks, Brandon!

Tyler was super helpful!
5 /5
Tyler made great recommendations and really took the time to understand where my skill level is at and where I intend to ski. Ultimately, I was uncomfortable making the investment without trying the skis first, so I ended up buying a pair that I had rented several times and really liked. I had so many questions and came very close to purchasing skis a few months ago but now I that I have nearly finished this season I have a better idea of what I was looking for!

Nico helped me decide what length Atomic Mavens to get and bindings. He helped me decide that these skis will work on East Coast ice and Jackson Hole powder. I wish Curated was sticking around because it's such a great service. My cousin bought skis bindings and boots last year with curated and is stoked.

Great help.
5 /5
Tyler helped to reassure me on the board I have been eying, while also suggesting the best options for boots and bindings; he never tried to push the most expensive option, but rather gave me a number of choices to consider for myself (and in fact, recommended a cheaper boot option than the one I went with!). He was a great help and I feel confident that he helped me make a solid purchase.

Additional Board
5 /5
I was looking at updating my board and was just looking around. After a quick chat with John to narrow down which board to pick, he made it easier than going into a store. He helped out with an additional discount that no other website could beat. Too hard to pass up a great deal, I bought the board and bindings. Cheers to debuting it before the season ends!

She knew exactly what I was looking for...
5 /5
I already knew what skis I was trying to find, based on the conditions I wanted to ski and also based on my skill level. Not only did she recommend the exact skis that I had been looking for, but she also recommended a better set of bindings than the ones I had previously thought were a good fit. I love that she's a neighbor over in VT while I'm in NH, so she knows East Coast (Ice Coast) skiing like I do. I'm so excited for the deal I just landed on brand new 2025 skis, and I have Shannon to thank for helping me narrow down the perfect fit. I'm just so sad to hear this amazing company is closing its doors, but while the deals are good and before they go, I will be recommending them to everyone I know! Thanks again, Shannon! Happy skiing!

Noah helped me tremendously. I kind of knew what I wanted but by asking the right questions, he helped point me in the best direction for my changing skill level and age and kind of terrain I'd be skiing more since moving to a different state. He took everything into account. He gave me choices for each item I wanted---skis, bindings, poles---and put together a perfect curation! I'm super stoked to be able to take advantage of the discounts of course, but I never would've been able to do that or even find such great equipment without Noah's help!
