SAFETY<br />

WITH THE NEW<br />

RANGER GRIP FISCHER<br />

ONCE AGAIN DEMONSTRATES<br />

SPECIAL COMPETENCE<br />

IN BACKCOUNTRY.<br />

Experienced mountain guides advise people not to use hand straps as<br />

the poles drag the skier dangerously down the hill if caught in an avalanche.<br />

On the other hand, however, the straps play an essential role in power<br />

transfer. With the new Ranger grip with Ergo Power Support Fischer has<br />

developed a solution without straps that ensures appropriate power transfer<br />

when climbing.<br />

HAND SUPPORTS FOR MORE POWER<br />

The ergonomic support surfaces for the heel of the hand guarantee efficient<br />

power transfer. This is made possible by a special design for right and left.<br />

This means that the pole can be gripped more loosely by the hand and<br />

forward thrust is guaranteed when climbing and pushing off. A 3-D welded<br />

EVA hand strap that can be additionally mounted and used on-piste.<br />

EXTREMELY LIGHT AND FLEXIBLE<br />

The extremely light Hollow Core Grip construction saves a considerable<br />

amount of weight. And the new Flexlite basket saves an additional 10 grams<br />

where it is most important thanks to its Flex Injection Construction. The flexible<br />

straps are injected direct into the plastic instead of being connected with<br />

rivets, which is the normal way. This means outstanding freedom of movement<br />

for optimum adjustment to the terrain and a reduction in swing weight for<br />

perfect pole balance.<br />
