Fischer Hannibal 96 Carbon Backcountry Alpine Skis

Fischer Hannibal 96 Carbon Backcountry Alpine Skis are a fantastic choice for adventurous ski tourers who are looking for a completely versatile set of skis for any and all backcountry adventures. These things just hit all the right notes, right down the middle of the spectrum. Thanks to the build, shape, and profile, the Fischer Hannibal 96 is an awesome ski that’s equally at home both on the uphills as well as the downs. Over the past five years or so, we’ve seen a huge explosion in the amount of skiers taking to the backcountry. Whether it’s long lift lines, higher ticket prices, or the search for exercise while skiing, there’s a ton of reasons to head out and find some human-powered skiing.

As a result, the companies have been quick to answer the call for demand, not only with the sheer quantity of items available but also the diversity and amount of choices that we see in the alpine world these days. This is how a ski like the Fischer Hannibal 96 was invented. There’s a need for a ski that’s light, mid-size, strong, and capable for all types of alpine touring applications. While beefy enough to be used as a resort ski, I wouldn’t say it’s that true one-ski quiver-certainly there are better uses. Skiers who either venture out for the whole day or even just a few resort laps early in the morning will love the middle-of-the-road nature and shape of the Fischer Hannibal 96 Carbon skis.
