2025 Fischer Nightstick 104 Skis

The Fischer Nightstick 104 is a wide freestyle ski made for skiers who treat the whole mountain like a terrain park. A poplar wood core in sandwich sidewall construction, a touch of titanal, and a fully twinned rocker profile give it a sturdy yet surfy feel. It delivers real float on powder days, a stable landing platform for big airs, and a loose, slashy personality when it's time to play in soft snow.

Why we like it:

The wider platform turns the Nightstick's park DNA into a genuine soft-snow freestyle tool, and it still spins and butters like a much narrower ski. The generative topsheet design is a fun bonus, since every pair has its own one-of-a-kind graphic.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers who bring a freestyle approach to powder days, backcountry kickers, and natural features. It's a great match for skiers who want to slash, drop, and spin through soft snow and still have a ski they can take into the park.

Highlights:

A 139mm tip, 104mm waist, and 129mm tail give the Nightstick 104 the surface area to stay on top of deep snow and land big airs with confidence. The Freeski Rocker in the tip and tail adds even more float and lets the ski pivot, slash, and smear on command. Fischer builds it around a poplar woodcore with sandwich sidewalls for a smooth, dependable flex and plenty of durability, while Air Tec milling trims weight from the core so the extra width doesn't feel heavy in the air. Fiber Tech glass and titanal reinforcement bring stability and grip when you're landing at speed or cutting across firmer snow, and the sintered base glides fast and holds up to rough use. Its 19m radius (measured at 180cm) gives it a slightly longer, more settled turn shape than its narrower siblings.

Things to consider:

All that width makes the Nightstick 104 slower edge to edge on firm groomers than the Nightstick 97 or 90, and it's a little more ski than most park-only skiers need. It's best for skiers who spend a good share of their days in soft snow.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Stick with your usual length on the Nightstick 104. Go up a length for more float and stability on big days, or drop a length if you want it to feel quicker and easier to spin.
