Alpine Touring 162 cm Fischer Transalp 86 CTI Skis (New)

The Fischer Transalp 86 CTI is a technical masterpiece for ski mountaineers and touring enthusiasts who demand a featherweight ascent without compromising on high-speed downhill stability. The "CTI" designation stands for Carbon and Titanal, highlighting the ski's sophisticated construction: a milled Paulownia wood core reinforced with carbon stringers and a shaped Titanal plate under the binding area. This combination provides exceptional torsional rigidity and edge grip on icy traverses and wind-buffed slopes. At 162cm, the Transalp 86 CTI is incredibly nimble, making it an ideal companion for technical couloirs and tight forest exits. Its Tour Rocker profile and 86mm waist ensure it remains versatile enough to handle spring corn and light powder, while the Air Tec core keeps the weight remarkably low (approx. 1110g–1205g per ski) to save your energy for the summit push.
