Fischer RX Cold Heat (2008)
A binding plate and vice-grip edge hold make the Cold Heat the most frontside-specific ski in this category. The ride is silky smooth but full of energy in a carved turn.
Props
Ideal for Eastern skiers.
Gripes
Skis feel heavy and sharp when you aren’t railing hardpack.
Tester's Take
