to be quick and easy turning along with a soft enough tail for those big
air landings.

for park and slope

The
Stockli Stormrider is simply put, is the most precise
skiing instrument on the market today.
Who they
are:
Based in Switzerland,
Stockli isn’t a major player in the
US market, and the company’s skis can be hard to find. Manufactured with
the same attention to detail as the heralded Swiss watches, Stockli’s
skis are built with a sandwich construction, with both wood and
synthetic cores, and the company isn’t afraid to tap into outside
expertise to help design the freeride line.
Both Scot Schmidt and
Dominique Perret have left their mark on the company’s big-mountain
tools. With three new park and pipe offerings, Stockli is bringing the
durability and toughness of their big-mountain line to jibbers.
Stockli are
renowned for
their levels of craftsmanship and finish. A Swiss company, 66 years
making skis, every ski hand made and only 40,000 pairs made a year.
Stockli is more of an institution to the ski industry than just a
manufacturer.
They have a very strong
heritage in specialist racing and Free-ride skis for skiers who equally
strong and technically competent. If you buy a World Cup slalom or GS
ski from Stockli it is essentially the same ski as that used on the
crystal circuit, you get lots of performance and speed but the flip side
is a very humbling experience if you do not ski to a high level.
