{"product_id":"2025-fischer-nightstick-97-skis-a17824","title":"2025 Fischer Nightstick 97 Skis","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Fischer Nightstick 97 is a freestyle ski built for park laps, slopestyle lines, and playful days in the side hits. A poplar wood core with sandwich sidewalls, light titanal reinforcement, and a twin-tip rocker profile give it a durable, balanced personality. The result is a ski that pops off features, lands switch without hesitation, and still has the composure to charge back to the lift through choppy snow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy we like it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFischer developed the Nightstick with some of the world's best freestyle athletes, and the prototype earned a World Cup silver medal before it ever reached a shop wall. We also love the generative topsheet design, which means no two pairs look exactly alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdvanced and expert freestyle skiers who split time between the terrain park and the rest of the mountain. It's a great match for skiers who spin, butter, and ride switch, and who want one ski that handles jumps, rails, and soft-snow side hits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 132mm in the tip, 96mm underfoot, and 122mm in the tail, the Nightstick 97 has enough platform to float in soft snow without feeling sluggish on rails. Under that shape, a poplar woodcore sits in a sandwich sidewall build, giving the ski a smooth, consistent flex and the durability park skiing demands. Air Tec milling takes weight out of the core without hurting performance, Fiber Tech glass keeps the flex even, and titanal reinforcement adds stability and edge hold at speed. The Freeski Rocker lifts the tip and tail for easy pivots, presses, and switch landings, and the twin shape keeps it consistent whether you're riding forward or fakie. The sintered base holds wax well and stands up to abuse, and a 17m radius at the 177cm length keeps turns quick and playful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThings to consider:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a freestyle ski first, so skiers looking for a damp, metal-heavy ski for fast groomers will find it more playful than locked in. The Nightstick 104 is the wider pick for skiers who spend more days in soft snow, while the Nightstick 90 is the narrower, more park-focused option.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; sizing considerations:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Nightstick 97 sizes true to length. Park and jib skiers can drop a length for quicker spins and easier presses, while skiers who roam the whole mountain can bump up a length for added stability and float.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fischer","offers":[{"title":"177","offer_id":52322307244328,"sku":"A17824|177","price":849.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/5135\/6456\/files\/2025-fischer-nightstick-97-skis-a17824-1-a17824.jpg?v=1793209727","url":"https:\/\/checkout.skiessentials.com\/products\/2025-fischer-nightstick-97-skis-a17824","provider":"SkiEssentials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
