Ghost, most people regard the older version of the SC as the superior one. That is not to say that perhaps the technology (distinct from design shape) may be superior now 3 yeears later. I skied the WC SC last year. It's a good ski. I actually like the shape of the older SC much better and the tighter turn radius, and that's why I bought it. Neither one compares with the SS in my opinion. The reason I wrote the comparison on the old SC was because I own them both and skied them on the same days and in the same conditions (and because someone, Michael, asked the question).
I have skied a lot of slalom carvers over the past two years (and I own a few pairs as well). Nothing IMO comes close to the SS.
Having said all this, because I have so much respect for Fischer skis, and have generally loved most Fischer skis I have been on, I would like to try the RX Fire, which has the same dimensions as the old WC SC, but hopefully has updated technology. It was rumored that these would be a late season intro this year (and currently only availabe in Europe). Perhaps we will start seeing them in the US in the next month. JB.
