2025 Fischer Ranger 84 Skis with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings

The 2025 Fischer Ranger 84 with Marker Griffon 13 ID Bindings is designed for skiers who appreciate a more forgiving build. Drawing inspiration from its wider counterparts, the Ranger 84 offers a freeride character while maintaining quick edge-to-edge transitions for enhanced mobility and ease of use. Its energetic and responsive design aims to provide a versatile skiing experience for less aggressive skiers eager to expand their horizons on the hill. We paired the 84 with the Marker Griffon 13 ID because of the Griffon’s precision and reliability for all mountain and freeride skiers. With a robust construction and all the best tech, the Griffon 13 is a popular high-performance binding choice for wider-bodied skis for good reason.

Why we like it:

The Ranger 84 stands out for its lively responsiveness and fun-loving nature, making it a pleasure to ski. It also supports progressing skiers as they refine their skills across different skiing disciplines, offering a blend of practicality and fun.

Who it's for:

The Ranger 84 is packed with energy and responsiveness, making it ideal for intermediate to advanced skiers who seek a ski that balances performance with ease of use.

Highlights:

Featuring a full poplar woodcore, the Ranger 84 provides a stable yet dynamic feel. Fischer’s Fiber Tech, with its fiberglass laminates, adds a layer of stiffness and enhances responsiveness, allowing skiers to experience significant output with minimal effort. The Sandwich Sidewall Construction utilizes full-length sidewalls to ensure efficient power transfer directly to the edges. The Freeski Rocker profile gives the ski a playful edge without compromising stability, allowing skiers to control turn initiation and refine their carving technique. As we’ve come to expect from Marker, there’s no shortage of tech packed into the Griffon 13 binding. Marker’s Triple Pivot Elite Toe and Inter-pivot 3 Freeride Heel systems work in tandem to provide improved edge grip and control, as well as helping to mitigate vibrations for a smooth ride. A cleverly placed anti-ice rail sits on top of the toepiece and can be used to scrape off those pesky clumps of snow and ice that accumulate on the sole of your boot. With Multinorm (MN) boot compatibility, the Griffon 13 is a versatile and reliable choice for a huge range of skiers and applications.

Things to consider:

Advanced to expert skiers who favor a more aggressive style might find the Ranger 84 a bit underpowered. However, for progressing intermediate or less aggressive advanced skiers seeking a forgiving, easy-to-use, and intuitive ski, the Ranger 84 is a top contender.
