Fischer Progressor 800 review 2015
PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments
The reviewers praise helps to mitigate the marks that sanction the Progressor’s lack high speed performance in an overly mechanical way. The ski effectively offers exceptional enjoyment up to intermediary speeds. Highly recommended for lighter, intermediary to good skiers looking for easy handling and enjoyment before performance.
Review: Pros
- Very enjoyable, easy to use and intuitive
- Smooth rotation and turn initiation
- Loves skid turns
- Feeling of lightness
Review: Cons
- Its flex reduces performance on hard pack and at high speed, when turn control becomes unsteady
