The Fischer Spider 62 Crown Xtralite is one of the most popular cross country skis for good reason. Stable, nimble, and lightweight, this ski will provide miles of smiles. Metal edges provide security in hard conditions, the width is perfectly balanced for both off trail and groomed tracks, and the pattern base has reliable grip in most conditions. There was only one thing Fischer could do to improve on this classic design, and Xtralite in the name says it all; make it lighter.
