The 2025 Fischer Transalp 105 CTi is a backcountry ski that balances uphill efficiency with downhill performance. Weighing approximately 1,540 grams per ski in the 178 cm length, it offers a lightweight option for extended tours without compromising stability on descents.
The ski features a Paulownia wood core reinforced with carbon stringers and Fischer's Shaped Ti technology—a strategically placed Titanal layer that enhances torsional stiffness and edge hold. This construction provides a damp and stable ride, particularly beneficial in variable snow conditions.
With a 105 mm waist, the Transalp 105 CTi offers ample float in soft snow while maintaining maneuverability. Its rocker-camber-rocker profile facilitates smooth turn initiation and adaptability across different terrains. The 22-meter turn radius supports both short and long turns, catering to various skiing styles.
Compared to other skis in its category, such as the Blizzard Zero G 105 or Atomic Backland 107, the Transalp 105 CTi stands out for its combination of lightweight construction and downhill capability. While it may require more input on firmer snow, it excels in soft snow and mixed conditions, making it a versatile choice for backcountry enthusiasts.
In summary, the Fischer Transalp 105 CTi is designed for skiers seeking a reliable touring ski that performs well on both ascents and descents. Its construction and design elements make it suitable for a range of backcountry conditions, offering a blend of float, stability, and responsiveness.
