Fischer RCS Skate

The RCS Skate is specifically optimized for cold weather performance, performing best at temperatures of 28°F (-2°C) and colder. While they can handle slightly warmer conditions, you will get the best glide and wax absorption in colder, firmer snow.

Cold Base Bonding improves the base material's ability to absorb wax compared to traditional high-heat bonding methods. This results in a more durable, faster base that holds glide wax longer, especially in the cold, abrasive snow conditions these skis are designed for.

Yes, these skis feature an IFP (Integrated Fixation Plate) mounting system, which is designed for TURNAMIC bindings. This system allows you to slide the bindings forward or backward without tools to adjust your grip and glide balance on the fly.

While the RCS Skate uses championship-proven race geometry, it is accessible enough for dedicated enthusiasts who want to improve their technique. However, it is a high-performance ski, so it will be more responsive and less forgiving than a dedicated entry-level touring ski.

No, these are dedicated skate skis. The sidecut, stiffness profile, and base structure are engineered specifically for the lateral push-off motion of skate skiing, not the kick-and-glide motion required for classic skiing.
