The 2026 Fischer Aeroguide Skate 85 is designed with the recreational skier in mind. This ski is the perfect platform for someone looking to take their skating to the next level on a ski that is loaded with high tech features. This ski features the Air Core Basalite Pro seen in higher end skis to give this ski the ultimate balance of a low weight and plenty of power.

Why we like it:

A more budget minded performance option geared to the fitness-oriented skier.

Who it's for:

This ski is perfect for the beginner to intermediate-advanced skate skier looking to be on a ski that will last as they progress.

Highlights:

This ski features many of the same technological advancements that the world cup level skis have, which makes Fischer one of the most successful skis in the race scene. The computer designed flex control specifically tunes each ski to use its flex characteristics to its advantage. The DTG world cup plus grind on these skis makes them optimized for any snow condition and just adds to the versatility of this ski.

Things to consider:

This ski may be on the soft side for a more race or speed-oriented skier, but for the recreational level skier this ski is perfect!

Fit & sizing considerations:

For more grip when climbing, going shorter can help, while going longer will provide a faster glide. However, choosing the length that is the correct size based on your weight is recommended.
