I really wanted to try out the
Fischer Watea 94 during a recent day at Alta.
Unfortunately, someone grabbed the only one
available before I got there, so I skied the 84
instead.
It's a terrific all-mountain ski, comparable to the
Volkl AC4 (my benchmark in recent seasons) but a bit
more biased toward soft snow and a little damper. It
floated well in knee-deep powder and initiated turns
smoothly. Didn't slice through cut-up snow as easily
as the AC4, and had less response on groomed runs,
but was better in untracked pow.
