We also got on the Madshus Epoch and the Fischer Sbound 98 with predictable results. In Vermont, the Madshus had the edge on glide while the Fischer was a slightly better climber. Biff America had the Fischers in the Breckenridge backcountry and concluded: “Breaks trail like a champ and floats and carves in fluff. Turns superbly and climbs like a goat.”
