The widest point on the shovel is set further forward. Together with a slight rocker (more gradual up-bend of the shovel), the more the ski is tilted, the further forward the contact point of the edge with the snow moves. This preserves its nimble characteristics without sacrificing stability and grip during the turn.

Sidewalls made of natural bamboo fibers

The height (20 mm) and length (60 mm) of this rocker are designed for powder adventures. It gives the ski plenty of lift and top maneuverability. For playful and effortless skiing in deep snow.

Carbon strip inserts around the binding plate area underneath the wood core. Carbon fibers running lengthwise are tensioned during the initiation phase of the turn and release during the finish of the turn, effectively creating an extra explosive acceleration.

CSC Technology was successfully used in the Alpine Skiing World Cup. The carbon laminate visibly recognizable in the window is glue-laminated as appropriate for each end point. In the flex line, the carbon laminate flexes ideally so that the ski loses none of its perfect tuning. On strong impacts, the carbon laminate comes under tension through its specialized glue laminate at the ends, which results in less flattening out on the snow.

An S-shaped notch in the aluminum at the shovel and tail of the ski offers softer flex and torsion at the front and rear. As a result, the ski exhibits more torsional flex, making it easier to initiate turns. At the same time, when changing direction, the ski remains under control because the torsion can adapt.

Special tail area. The use of a high-tech polymer in combination with a new rocker angle results in the tail being both lighter and softer. The ski is even more responsive and maneuverable as a consequence.

Light, stiff insert material at the tip makes the shovel more stable and less jittery. This light Freeride Tip material helps generate more lift in deep snow.

The widest points of the ski are set further forward or back. This makes the shovel grip faster and the part of the edge in contact with the snow when the ski is tilted becomes longer.

New surfaces on the Laser models. Combining three different textures, the skis gain a unique, classy and athletic look. Every ski is unique.

Particularly light European wood species are deployed in the all-mountain, freeride/off-piste and touring segments. This makes the core a little softer and suppler, which lends the ski dynamism and makes it very durable.

Use of ecological raw materials in ski production. NEW: Bamboo fibers

This sidewall is slightly softer and therefore more elastic than the phenolic sidewall. It exhibits damping properties and thus boasts significantly higher impact resistance.

This coating has a higher graphite content compared to a conventional coating, thus offering even better gliding properties. The higher graphite content makes the coating highly abrasion resistant: less dust and other particles in the snow are able to penetrate the coating and cause a braking effect.

The special die-cutting procedure is typical of racing and improves the bond between edge and ski. For top performance and direct power transmission.

Phenol sidewalls with a harder resin plus carbon black, which leads to greater stability and a more direct power transfer.

The gradual bending up of the ski at its tip and tail is called the rocker. Stöckli modifies the rocker according to the type of ski. Typically, the longer and more pronounced the rocker, the more lift is generated and the more responsive and easy-turning the ski becomes.

The ski is built up layer-by-layer, with each layer glued together under pressure - a well-proven manufacturing process in ski construction

The construction of these models changes according to the length. The shorter lengths are typically made a little lighter and softer compared to the longer lengths. The aim is to provide an optimal match between the ski’s handling characteristics and the skier’s physique.

The individual layers are thinner and some models feature lighter materials. This lends the ski a softer flex. Light skiers, especially, benefit from the enhanced bending characteristics which offer enhanced enjoyment with less effort.

Wider than conventional edges. This not only increases the service life of the ski, but also pays off in the rental/lending sector, where the equipment is subjected to particularly heavy use. A wider edge also makes the ski a little more stable.

Same edge width as the SME. A modified die-cutting procedure, however, means the edge is inserted less deeply into the ski, which saves weight.

Rocker: A longer rocker at the tail with a flatter radius.

This fiberglass laminate is 25% lighter than its conventional counterpart. The optimized material composition maintains the stiffness of the fiberglass and thus the ski’s handling characteristics.

No conventional cover sheet. Instead, the top layer of Titanal is coated with a powder. The design is then applied directly to the Titanal by means of transfer printing. This produces weight savings and results in a special visual appearance.

Special powder coating on the Titanal surface of the touring skis inspired by the water-repellency of the lotus flower.

An additional protective coating featuring a slightly raised structure is applied to the Titanal surface. This affords the ski better protection from scratches on the top surface and gives it a special haptic.

Lengthwise cuts at the tip and tail provide more control and tolerance. The ski does not react overly aggressive at the beginning and end of the turn.

These special edges for touring skis are not as wide or as high as traditional alpine edges.

Our touring skis feature special milling at the tail end to facilitate the attachment of climbing skins. The hook at the end of the skin is afforded additional protection by the milling of the tail guard. Very practical when it’s cold or you have to get a move on. This feature also makes the end of the ski a little softer and smoother.

New surfaces on Laser X models. Slightly nubby texture creates a matte/shiny surface that imparts an elegant look to the design. The top graphics layer is also rugged.

The cut-outs in the Titanal lend torsion neutrality and effortless skiing at a low speed on easy slopes. At higher tempos and rough slopes the Titanal cutouts interlock. With these cut-outs, the ski is more stable, smoother, and thus lends more security.

Like the core, the upper Titanal layer also has a thickness profile. The Titanal layer is thinner at the ski‘s tip and tail. VRT technology has been incredibly successful in competitive racing.

The ski width is proportionate to the length of the ski. The longer the ski, the wider it is and the more contact it has with the snow. This allows a good relationship to be established between the height and weight of the skier and the width, and therefore the weight, of the ski.
