Hybrid Reality Check: Fischer needs 50 Test Riders!

Fischer Sports means business: with its HYBRID Reality Check the company will be giving 50 skiers the opportunity to secure their version of the latest technology wonder on the ski market via Facebook – the Fischer HYBRID, version 2.0 among the rocker skis.

Application phase
Things get underway on 11 October 2012. Starting then, anyone who is interested can apply to become an official HYBRID tester via the internet. Fischer Sports will provide each winner with a pair of HYBRID skis for test purposes for the 12l13 winter season. On one condition – test reports have to be sent in on a regular basis. And at the end of the winter season the testers can look forward to the skis being their own to keep!

Voting on http://fischersports.com/hybrid-reality-check
The selection procedure begins on 2 November 2012 and ends on 15 November 2012. All readers will be asked to vote for their favourite tester in this procedure – on Facebook. Selections will be made based on the number of votes collected and on how the rider has convinced the expert jury. The best 50 will then get to check the Fischer skis in reality and comment on them. Skiers from Germany, Finland, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Russia, Switzerland, Slovenia and the USA are eligible to take part in the Reality Check.

Excitement all round
The test phase lasts the whole winter and will certainly be exciting. Thanks to the posts on Facebook, all users have access to the opinions and reports of the testers and get the latest updates. By the way, every user who takes part in the voting also has the chance to win – the lucky person whose name is drawn will also receive a pair of the top Hybrid skis!

The ski:
Hybrid technology: uniting freeride and racing

Multifunction for top-level skiers. This is what the latest Fischer line is all about. The Hybrid highlight achieves what no other ski is capable of, offering outstanding performance on the slopes and a Freeski feeling in powder. And how? With a simple click between rockered and non-rockered ski. Switching from racer to cool off-piste rider is no trouble at all. The Double Titanium construction with Sandwich Sidewall gives you immense power and awesome performance on the piste. Twin tips and widths up to 105 mm meet the requirements placed on top Freeski models. Hybrid technology creates the connection between the target groups and ski for all conditions and purposes. For high-end skiers who just want one ski for all conditions!

Top technology, easy handling
Two possible settings are what make Hybrid technology stand out.
1. Rocker on: position 1 gives you all the benefits of a rocker ski. Perfect skiing off-piste, great performance in short turns on-piste.
2. Rocker off: with the 2 position you simply switch off the rocker function to leave you with a true piste monster under your feet. Ideal for long, aggressive turns on the slopes.
A mechanism integrated inside the ski with a lever on the top of the ski makes it possible. Switch over the lever, flex the ski and it goes CLICK! This enables a simple switch from freerider to racing ski for the piste.
