The Fischer Watea 96 is a freeride ski that handles well over the whole mountain in all conditions.

They perform very well at higher speeds, both on and off-piste whilst making turning feel easy with the ‘freeski rocker’ tip.

Designed for expert skiers, the Watea 96 would also suit an advanced skier who wants to improve their off-piste skiing and likes to spend time on groomed runs too.
