Fischer’s all-new RC4 ski boot family will feature the MV line with Boa technology on the lower part of the shell, which the company says will create an accurate fit out of the box and improve power transfer while skiing. The Boa system allows for 1 mm adjustments of tightness and wraps the foot snugly to optimize both fit and performance. The stiff RC4 Pro ZF Boa is the first boot to come with a Zipfit Innerboot and a carbon-fused cuff, according to Fischer. The entire RC4 ski boot line includes three different volume options that are all compatible with Fischer’s vacuum fit system for customizing ski boots to your feet. The new RC4 line will be available at the start of the 2023-24 ski season. fischersports.com

MountainFLOW now offers “the industry’s only” recycled aluminum ski pole. The pole, designed specifically for rental use, is made of space-grade 7075 aluminum, offering the same strength, weight, and corrosion-resistant properties as virgin aluminum, and is nearly twice as strong as poles made with 6061 aluminum. The 18 mm diameter adds to the pole’s durability, and minimal branding means less surface area to scratch, scuff, and ding, so the poles will stay looking fresh for longer. Plus, a sustainable manufacturing process emits 95 percent less carbon emissions than virgin aluminum, according to the company. mountainflow.com
