Fischer ski number decoding. Numbers and letters on Fisher skis. Fischer ski sliding surface structures

In the world market, Fischer skis occupy a leading position. They are popular in Russia and other CIS countries. The devices are of high quality, use of the latest materials, and also a considerable price. They are used by leading athletes and amateurs actively involved in skiing.

About the manufacturer

Fischer was founded back in 1924 by the then little-known carpenter Josef Fischer. The first production hall was erected in the city of Riede (Austria). Initially, the company produced various joinery products. Cross-country and skiing Fischer began to be produced only in 1934. Now the corporation occupies a leading position in the manufacture of relevant products in the world.

In the domestic market, professional samples of this brand are also a priority. In addition, the company produces ski poles, boots, special clothing and sports accessories. The main product line consists of training, recreational, racing and alpine skis.

Marking

Designations are placed on the toe of the skis and on their lateral surface. In the first case, these are two digits. One of them indicates the type of sliding surface. The cold type is marked with the A5 symbol, and the warm - 28. The second marker indicates the design features. Skis Fischer 610 (610Q) are focused on a soft prepared type of track. The 115 (1Q) version is intended for hard and icy areas. A number of numbers are also printed on the side surface. The first of them denotes the height group in centimeters, the second - the year of production. The next number indicates the hardness (can be 6, 5 or 4 - stiff / medium / hard). The next five digits correspond to the batch number, and the last index is the stiffness indicator.

Peculiarities

The range of thermal loads that Fischer skis have is divided into two categories, namely:

Cold type (Cold) is intended for use at temperatures below -5 degrees Celsius.
Warm class (Plus) is designed for higher temperature operation.

In fact, the second type is considered more versatile. The devices have a soft base, which makes it possible to achieve optimal glide on soft tracks with a high humidity. In harsh weather, they can be adjusted by rubbing with paraffin or special knurls. Cold counterparts on soft snow will slide worse, and with frost below five degrees, this figure is almost the same.

Alpine skiing Fischer

The Speedmax model is a professional example of a high level. The most famous skiers perform on this modification. There are skate and classic variations in this series. In the first case, the devices are equipped with a characteristic cutout in the ski toe, which reduces the weight of the model.

They are equipped with a special carbon fiber core and are cold-bonded with the sliding part. To do this, first, the base is made in a molding furnace at a temperature of over 100 degrees, and then the working surface is attached at room temperature. This improves glide regardless of weather conditions. The mass of such a pair is 1.02 kilograms with a length of 1.86 meters.

Alpine skis Fischer Carbonlite. They differ from the previous series in the lightweight Air Core Carbonlite system and production technology. The product is completely oven-made. With a pair of 186 centimeters long, its weight is 0.97 kg.
The RCS modification is the previous version without a toe hole. The use of laminated elements and fiberglass in the construction contributes to the fact that the products weigh 1.08 kg at a standard length (186 cm).

Training instances

This category is classified as a training run series for professional and experienced skiers. Available in skate and Fischer Classic versions. In production, simpler and cheaper materials are used. The manufacturing scheme is identical to the elite variations. This combination allows you to guarantee high running parameters at a lower cost.

For example, the Fisher modification (SCS) has a universal structure designed for different climatic conditions. Reinforced piping provides high directional stability, while additional inserts on the heels and toes increase durability and rigidity. Additionally, a core is used, consisting of a material with the inclusion of volcanic basalt elements. The weight of a pair with a length of 1.87 meters is 1.27 kilograms.

Another modification for training "Fisher" (CRS) is equipped with a universal design of the sliding part, differs from the previous version in the presence of other materials and dimensions. Weight is 1.35 kilograms, length - 187 centimeters.

Amateur and tourist options

In this class, Fischer skis are divided into skating, classic, children's and combined versions. They are intended for use by novice athletes, young skiers and other people who enjoy ordinary skiing on such a device. High-quality, but simple components and materials are used in the manufacture. This approach ensures the preservation of the required speed qualities in combination with an acceptable price. Among the tourist options, the following modifications stand out:

SC - the pair has a mass of 1.38 kilograms and a length of 1.87 meters.
The Fischer Sprint LS skis have a weight of 1.45 kg and a length of 187 centimeters.

Consumer feedback

The owners note a lot of advantages and minor disadvantages in the modifications under consideration. The advantages of users include reliability, durability, excellent maneuverability and glide. In addition, the owners are satisfied with the external design, the ability to purchase similar additional accessories and a wide selection, depending on the purpose.

Among the disadvantages, amateurs and professionals note the high price, especially for professional models... However, they agree that quality remains on high level, thanks to the use of productive technologies and high quality components in the manufacture. Cross-country skiing Fischer, reviews of which are mostly positive, are rightfully a leader in their class, both at the amateur and professional level.

Conclusion

Fischer skis have gained high popularity largely due to their top-of-the-line skis. They are designed for athletes of various levels and simply connoisseurs of this sport. It is worth noting that Fischer children's skis are identified by the name Junior.

They differ in size, but are perfect for training and moving young skiers on different snow tracks. Despite the decent cost, the products in question are in demand all over the world. In addition, Fischer skis stand out by their combination of price and quality among their closest competitors.

There is a lot more to learn about skis than is written in bright big letters on its surface. The ability to read information on skis will help you choose the right skis in the store and not be deceived when buying used skis. We'll tell you all about Fischer ski numbers in this article.

Serial number of Fischer skis: transcript

On the sidewall of Fischer skis, in the area of the anchorage heel, there is a serial number that all amateur skiers want to decipher. There are even those who are looking for a sacred meaning in these numbers. In fact, everything is simple in the room, as in the number of any other product.

187/1450688580 031

187 - ski length in cm
14 - year of manufacture (2013)
5 - hardness (4 - soft, 5 - medium, 6 - stiff)
06 - serial number of the week of issue from the beginning of the calendar year
88580 - ski serial number
031 - stiffness index (FA).

Since 2016, the number of skis is of this type 191/1653513931 without stiffness index. The sizes of the top skating models have decreased by 1 cm, and the FA index is written on a sticker with a barcode. An example in the photo is FA 80.

And this is how the sticker of the "sports shop" skis looks like with more detailed information... What these indicators mean will be discussed below.

On Fischer skis 2019-2020, the number is inscribed in the area of the IFP platform. It seems that the place was specially chosen so that the number was hidden when installing the fasteners on the screws.

Fischer ski structures, diagrams and ski bases for weather and track density

On the ski toe on the side of the sliding surface, you can find two designations, for example: 28 / 1Q or 28/902 or A5 / 610. These designations contain information about the base of the slide and the design of the skis.

Fischer bases (sliding surfaces)

The sliding surface markings can be found on the slide on the toe of the ski. The construction is also marked there.

A5- a universal base for cold temperatures from -5C and below. Stands on skis marked Cold, factory structure code C1-1.
28 - universal warm base at t -10C and above. Suitable for all types of snow, stands on skis with the Plus mark. Since the 17/18 season, it has become more versatile: -10 and warmer, against the old one from -2 and warmer. The factory structure code remains the same - P5-1.

Skis Speedmax, Carbonlite, RCS:

Worldcup 28 (Plus) - 10% Graphite
Worldcup A5 (Cold) - 4.5% Graphite

Skis RCR, SCS, CRS, SC:

Worldcup pro - 7.5% graphite
Protec - 7.5% graphite

LS skis:

Sintec - 3.5% graphite

Skate ski constructions

115 (15/11) - construction for a well prepared and icy track. The fulcrum points are closer to the toe and heel of the ski. This arrangement increases the stability of the ski. It is especially relevant on an unprepared ice track and with a lack of technology. The main disadvantages: "sticking" the ski and "burying" in loose snow.
610 (61Q, 1Q)- construction for a well-prepared and soft track. The fulcrum points are brought closer to the last, which makes the toe and heel of the ski softer. This design allows the ski not to "stick" or bury itself in loose snow. The main disadvantages: "scour" the icy track with a lack of technology.

Constructions classic skis

902 (90 / 9Q2)- construction for soft and loose track. Similar to the ridge 610 / 1Q, i.e. has soft toes and heels. The shoe is positioned lower than the 812 for easier handling in difficult weather conditions. The main disadvantage: due to the low location of the holding zone, the ointment will disappear faster.
90L- a kind of design 902. It has a higher arc, i.e. the block is raised higher. It is found on skis from a special order, and since 2018 it has been used in Speedmax Twin Skin skis (but the marking is still 9Q2).
812 (81 / 8Q2)- universal classic design. The standard pad position retains the holding ointment longer, but requires more momentum to push through.

Fischer Ski Structures

The most common structures are P5-1 and C1-1. They are, according to manufacturers, the most popular at the World Cup.

Applying structure to skis is a delicate matter. To replicate the structure, there must be the same equipment, the same grinding stone, the same emulsion, etc. Real racing Fisher structures only roll in Reed. The structures P5-1 (Plus or universal warm) and C1-1 (Cold or universal cold) are applied to the skis.

Below is the full list structures used and used by Fischer. A similar list is circulating on the Internet, but in this list we have adjusted the temperature ranges as of the 17/18 season. If you have something to add to this list, write in the comments.

Indicators FA, HR, SVZ: what is it and how to find out through the ski barcode

Such markings are not found on all skis, but only on those specially selected for a professional or by pre-order. That is, at the “special shop” or “sports shop”, as our skiers like to call it. We wrote in more detail about the existence of a special or sports workshop in the article.

If you have skis in front of you without a sticker, then these indicators can be easily recognized. Put any QR code scanner on your smartphone, launch it and read the barcode while skiing. The program will give something like 2.7 - 98.3, if this information does not come out, then try to read another barcode. For example, we got 2.7 - 98.3, that is, the HR of the ski is 2.7, the exact FA is 98.3. Do not be surprised that the sticker may say FA 98 or even 97. Skis are not produced in pairs, they are assembled in pairs only later and such discrepancies are within the margin of error.

On the skis of the 2019-2020 season, there is a sticker of this type. It already has a QR code on it to read all information about the skis: barcode number, full ski number with size, HR and FA.

After reading, you get a number of this type, where

9002972387616 - barcode number
186/1865078755 - number that is knocked out on skis
2.2 - HR
90 - FA

HR- clearance in millimeters, which remains after pressing on the ski half the weight of the average skier. The load is applied to the ski 7 cm below the balance point. The remaining gap is HR. Simply put, this is the stiffness of the toes and heels of the ski. For example, if you take skis with the same FA, but different HR, a ski with a high HR will push more evenly, and with a lower HR it will be easy at first, but it will be more difficult to push. With a high HR - a large arc, a more curved ski, with a lower HR - a smaller arc, the block is closer to the track in the rolling phase. Low lasting is especially important for inexperienced skiers. In the classics, it will make it easier to hold, and in the skate, it will improve stability at the box office.
SVZ- a characteristic showing how much the ski differs from the ideal ratio of HR and FA. The value is used in production to check the quality and the selection of skis in pairs. When choosing a pair of skis for yourself, the indicator does not matter.
FA(stiffness index) is the amount kilogram, which need to be applied 7 cm below the balance point, to compress the ski to a gap of 0.2 mm.

Why FA and not specific weight? The FA index is a characteristic of a ski, not an athlete. Using this parameter, a specialist can select skis for a specific athlete. The same ski can fit 70 kg for a professional skier and 90 kg for an amateur. At the same time, both will be comfortable and the skis will work as they should. It is more difficult to pick up with FA than by kilograms, but if you figure it out, the selection of skis will be better.

Information about the structure and diagram of Fischer skis Two designations can be found on the ski toe on the side of the sliding surface, for example: 28 / 1Q or 28/902 or A5 / 610. These designations contain information about the base of the slide and the design of the skis.

Fischer sliding surfaces

The sliding surface markings can be found on the slide on the toe of the ski. The construction is also marked there.

A5- a universal base for cold temperatures from -5C and below. Stands on skis marked Cold, factory structure code C1-1.

28 - universal warm base at t -10C and above. Suitable for all types of snow, stands on skis with the Plus mark. Since the 17/18 season, it has become more versatile: -10 and warmer, against the old from -2 and warmer. The factory structure code remains the same - P5-1.

Indicators FA, HR, SVZ

Such markings are not found on all skis, but only on specially selected skis for a professional or on pre-order.

HR- the gap in millimeters that remains after pressing on the ski with half the weight of the average skier. The load is applied to the ski 7 cm below the balance point. The remaining gap is HR. Simply put, this is the stiffness of the toes and heels of the ski. For example, if you take skis with the same FA, but different HR, a ski with a high HR will push more evenly, and with a lower HR it will be easy at first, but it will be more difficult to push.

When choosing a pair of skis for yourself, the indicator does not matter. FA (stiffness index) is the number of kilograms that must be applied 7 cm below the balance point to compress the ski to a gap of 0.2 millimeters. Why FA and not specific weight?

FA Index- characteristic of the ski, not the athlete. Using this parameter, a competent specialist can choose skis for a specific athlete. The same ski can fit 70kg for a professional skier and 90kg for an amateur. At the same time, both will be comfortable and the skis will work as they should. It is more difficult to pick up with FA, but if you figure it out, then the selection of skis will be of better quality.

Cold models have A5 sliding surface - universal cold base at t -2C and below (factory structure code C1-1)
Plus, S-track, Zero models have a sliding surface 28 - a universal warm base at t -10 C and above (-5C and above until the 15-16 season). Factory structure code unchanged - P5-1
30 warm base light base on old wet snow.

Fischer ski constructions:

115 - versatile design for well prepared and icy trails, providing the best stability and control. The fulcrum (peaks of the diagram) are sharp, located closer to the toe and heel of the ski. This arrangement increases the stability of the ski. The main disadvantages: "sticking" the ski and "burying" in loose snow.

610 (61Q) - Versatile construction for well prepared and soft trails, The fulcrum points are brought closer to the last for a softer toe and heel. This design allows the ski not to "stick" or bury itself in loose snow. The main disadvantages: "prowl" on a hard track and with a lack of technology.

812 (81) - versatile classic design

902 (90) - ski construction for soft, poorly prepared, loose track. Provides excellent glide and confident take-off in loose trail conditions.

Fischer Speedmax. Skis differ from others in Cold Base Bonding technology - cold bonding of plastic. So the plastic does not deform due to temperature changes (does not go in waves), does not change its structure, glides better, and absorbs grease better. With this technology, the ski requires less sanding and the sliding surface remains thicker, which allows more processing during use.

Weight of skis - 1030g. (186cm), ski profile 41-44-44.

There are 3 types of ridge skates:

Skate Cold (610 / 1Q)
Skate Plus (610 / 1Q)
Skate C-Special (610 / 1Q)

4 classic pairs:

Classic Plus (902 / 9Q2)
Classic Plus (812 / 8Q2)
Classic Cold (812 / 8Q2)
Zero + (902 / 8Q2)

1 pair for double polishing:

Double Poling (DP)

Fischer Сarbonlite Are some of the lightest skis in the world. Their weight is only 980g. (186cm). Carbon fiber toe and heel. Honeycomb core, the walls of the ski are made of honeycombs, standing perpendicularly. This design gives more rigidity to the ski without adding weight.

There are 2 types of ridge skates:

Skate Cold (610 / 1Q)
Skate H-Plus (115/15)

And 1 classic pair:

Classic Plus (812 / 8Q2)

FischerRCS- Plastic, structures and constructions are the same as on the uppermost models. The key difference is that the RCS is heavier than the top models. Their weight is 1090 grams. (187 / 197cm)

1 pair of ridge skates is produced:

Skate Plus (115/15)

And 2 pairs of classic ones:

Classic Plus (812 / 8Q2)
Zero + (902 / 9Q2)

FischerRCR- skis for active amateurs. Perfect for ski marathon lovers who run for fun, not for results. The sliding surface is the same WC Plus as on RCS, Carbonlite, but the skis themselves are a little heavier - 1190 gr. The new universal Plus structure is applied at -10 and warmer. Ski construction only 115.

RCR Skate - 1190 gr. (115)

SCS, CRS, SC models

Skis Fischer SCS and below are designed for recreational skiing "weekend". All 115 have a design that is more stable and comfortable for a person with weak equipment. A sliding surface made of less quality plastic. Also, these skis are much heavier than the upper models:

SCS - 1270 gr.
CRS - 1320 gr.
SC - 1360 gr.

Fischer LS (low segment)- initial ski model. Full wood core with air channels. From season 17/18, skis will be produced with and without IFP.

Fischer TwinSkin- a series of classic skis that do not require holding ointment. A special mohair camus is inserted into the block, which clings to the snow in one direction and does not interfere with sliding in the other.

There are 3 options:

TwinSkin Carbon - 1080g (902 / 9Q2 construction)
TwinSkin Race - 1190 gr., (Construction 812 / 8Q2)
TwinSkin Pro - 1330 gr.

The difference is, as usual, in the slip and weight, there are differences in the TwinSkin material. The Carbon skis have a top-end WC Plus slide, a lightweight core and a TwinSkin made from 100% mohair. Carbon also has a reduced last for improved glide, which will give an advantage to skiers with good technique. These skis can be used on winter classic marathons. Race and Pro are heavier skis with skids like the SCS and below. In the Pro version, the TwinSkin consists of a mixture of mohair and synthetic fibers. Race and Pro are best used only for training and walking.

Fischer Zero +

A special line of classic skis for difficult weather conditions - at a temperature of about 0 degrees with drops from -3 to +3 degrees. The peculiarity of skis is that they do not require holding ointments. The pad area is made of a special material, the length of which can be adjusted. Elongated with fine sandpaper, shortened with paraffin. The model is great for spring marathons and loppets.

The ruler consists of 2 pairs. Both have top-end sliding surfaces and 902 / 9Q2 construction. The only difference is in the weight of the skis and the way the plastic is glued.

Speedmax Zero + (1030 gr., Design 902 / 9Q2)
RCS Zero + (1090 gr., Design 902 / 9Q2)

FISCHER SKI SLIDING STRUCTURES

It is not possible to reproduce the same grinding grinder on two different machines. There must be the same stone, the same diamond, the same water used for flushing. This means that real Fischer structures can only be made at the Fischer factory, and at the moment this feature is only available to members national teams, performing at the stages of the World Cup. On stock skis, structures P5-1 (universal warm, previously P1-1) and C1-1 (universal cold) are applied. They are also most often used by racers of the World Cup level. Highly specialized structures are less common.

P10-1 for dry snow at temperatures below 0 ° С
C1-1 all types of snow, including fresh, temperatures below -5 ° С
S3-1 for artificial snow, temperature below -5 ° С
S8-1 narrower structure for artificial snow from 0 ° С ...- 10 ° С
S12-1 any type of snow, -5 ° С ...- 15 ° С
P1-1 temperature + 3 ° С ...- 5 ° С, fresh snow
P3-1 structure on fresh snow, for temperatures above 0 ° С
P3-2 on old wet snow
P3-3 watery snow, from + 5 ° С and above
P5-0 dry fine snow from 0 ° С ...- 5 ° С
P5-9 structure for classic skis on old wet snow, temperatures from 0 ° C and above
TZ1-1 structure on fresh snow at temperatures below 0 ° С
P5-1 universal structure for temperatures from + 5 ° С ...- 10 ° С, any type of snow
P22-6 transitional structure for any type of snow, temperature from + 5 ° С ...- 5 ° С

HARDNESS INDEX FA, HR, SVZ

HR-gap in millimeters, which remains after pressing on the ski half the weight of the average skier. The load is applied to the ski 7 cm below the balance point. The remaining gap is HR. Simply put, this is the stiffness of the toes and heels of the ski.

SVZ- a characteristic showing how much the ski differs from the ideal ratio of HR and FA. The value is used in production to check the quality of the selection of skis in pairs. When choosing a pair of skis for yourself, the indicator does not matter.

Stiffness index FA Is the maximum load, measured in kilograms, applied 7 cm below the balance point, compressing the ski to a gap of 0.2 millimeters (the thickness of the ointment layer).

For each athlete's weight, depending on the qualifications, technical features and the condition of the track, there is a fairly wide range of the stiffness index with a spread of ten units.

optimal selection for skating: skier's weight + 15 - 25%. 15% for soft tracks. 25% for tight.

optimal selection for classic move: weight / 2.

The index is indicated in the production barcode and on the side of the ski - three numbers, standing in a small interval from the serial number. (for models of the season 15/16, the index is indicated on a separate sticker, 17/18 - on the general production sticker).

The serial number of the pair is indicated on the side of the ski (picture below):

202/1353513931 043

202 - ski length in cm

13 - year of manufacture (2013)

5 - hardness (4 - soft, 5 - medium, 6 - stiff)

35 - serial number of the week of issue from the beginning of the calendar year

13931 - ski serial number

043 - stiffness index (FA)

The top ski segment is produced only in Austria (from RCR to Speedmax), junior Speedmax and Carbonlite. Austrian skiing says “Made in Austria”. “Austria” is written on Ukrainian skis.

Sports shop skis and pre-order.

There are 2 myths. The first is spread by the manufacturers: there is no sports shop, the same skis are sold in ordinary stores, on which they win at the highest level. The second myth (closer to the truth) is spread by sellers: there is a sports shop. This is how skis "from under the collection" appear, designed for 100 kg of an athlete, or pre-order offers, when shop skis will be "made" directly for you.

Fischer certainly has a racing department. Individual changes in the production of skis at the request of the riders are made to the design. But this only applies to the riders of the world elite. The shop ski label contains more information for selection, and the servicemen know from year to year which ski a particular athlete is using. But in any case, all other things being equal, they have to roll back their skis every time, and only tests on the snow can show which pair of skis works in this weather, in this place. Workshop skis that fail the tests will certainly end up in the stock. Who will sell a perfectly working pair with a large residual resource (and not a "standing" one, repeatedly re-grinded and burnt) ???

Pre-ordered skis - selection from the stock for your parameters, there can be no question of individual production. Exactly the same as in the store, just matched. On skis there will be a special sticker on which you can see all the measurements skis, not just FA.
