Skis

Fischer Ski jumping

  • Ski Jumping

Skis per FIS's official athlete database (Skis: Fischer).

Ski jumping race ski from Fischer's ski jumping athlete roster, distinct from the brand's existing alpine and cross-country race-ski entries. Starting the 2025-26 season, Fischer Sports' ski jumping skis carry a co-branding partnership with the unrelated German fastening-technology company 'fischer Group', featuring the fischer Group's 'DuoPower' anchor-product branding on the skis alongside the Fischer Sports logo - this is a sponsorship/branding tie-up, not a new ski model name.

Boots

Rass Ski jumping

  • Ski Jumping

Boots per FIS's official athlete database (Boots: Rass).

Handmade ski jumping boot from Rass, a specialty footwear maker in Schoenheide, Saxony (Erzgebirge), founded 1962. Rass's actual retail model lineup, confirmed via its official shop (sport-schuhe.com) and US distributor (jumpgear.us), is: Jump-One and Jump-Two (lightweight synthetic-leather upper, micro-suede lining, optional fiber-plate reinforcement; the two differ only in calf-spoiler height) and Eagle One and Eagle Two (stiffer, more structured spoiler for improved in-flight body position; again differing from each other only in spoiler height).
