Pros: None

Cons: Where do I begin?

 

Review:

I thought we were beyond "gimmick" skis..Fischer must think otherwise. While Fisher makes some great skis from their very fast RC4 skis, stellar Progressors and the very good Motives...why they felt the need to add an adjustable (and HEAVY) bar on the front of their skis so you can have "early rise on demand" is beyond me. I really try to find the positives of a product but I have a real tough time with this one...the graphics aren't that bad? Sorry, thats all I got.
