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); also confirmed via Wikipedia.
