Fischer Outback Crown/Skin

These are designed specifically for off-track, backcountry exploration. While they can handle occasional groomed sections, their steel edges, wider profile, and climbing systems are built for unpredictable, ungroomed terrain.

The Offtrack Crown is a patterned base that provides mechanical grip on the snow, eliminating the need for daily kick-waxing. It is highly reliable for general touring, though you can add skins for extra traction on steeper climbs.

Yes, the skis feature an integrated attachment point for skins, but the skins themselves are typically sold separately. This system allows you to add extra grip only when you know you will be tackling steep, challenging terrain.

Steel edges provide essential bite and control on hard-packed snow or icy crusts. They offer significantly more stability and security when navigating descents or traversing sidehills compared to standard skis without edges.

The Nordic Rocker lifts the tip of the ski slightly, which makes turn initiation much easier and helps the ski float over softer, deeper snow. It essentially makes the ski feel more maneuverable and less 'hooky' in variable conditions.

Yes, they feature an Air Tec wood core that is optimized to reduce weight without sacrificing durability. At 1990g per pair, they are balanced for all-day comfort while remaining robust enough for rugged backcountry use.
