Fischer Ski jumping

  • Ski Jumping

FIS athlete-biography 'Skis' field lists Fischer (bespoke competition ski-jumping equipment; retail range shows only RC1/Speedmax cross-country skis -- see Products id 298 notes).

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.
