Different waxless pattern and subtly different shapes to start with and they don't weight the same. While the ski industry is pretty incestious (e.g. I would not be that suprised to learn they were made in the same factory ), it's my perhaps incorrect understanding that Fischer and Atomic are pretty much self sufficient when it comes to ski manufacturing. (i.e. they make their own skis in their own factories.) Most other ski companies don't have the volume to do this. Atomic does make skis for other brands in addition to their own, but I don't think Fischer is one of them. _ Booker C.
