TECHNOLOGY
ROCKER
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.
BENEFITS
- better float in powder
- Less effort required
- easier to turn on pistes
- easier edging
LIGHT CORE & SUPER LIGHT CORE
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.
BENEFITS
- Reduced weight due to ultralight cores
- dynamic ski response
- very durable
SOFTFLEX
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.
BENEFITS
- Optimal ski deflection
- Less effort required for improved comfort
- Reduced weight
SOLID METAL EDGE LIGHT
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.
BENEFITS
- Longer service life
- Reduced susceptibility to damage
- More grinding possible
POLYWALL
This sidewall is slightly softer and therefore more elastic than the phenolic sidewall. It exhibits damping properties and thus boasts significantly higher impact resistance.
BENEFITS
- Highly robust
- High impact resistance
- Damping properties
TAIL ROCKER
Rocker: A longer rocker at the tail with a flatter radius.
BENEFITS
- With the longer, extended rocker, the edge in contact with the snow is decreased, making the ski more playful.
- The longer rocker enables optimum grip when edging.
FREERIDE TIP TECHNOLOGY
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.
BENEFITS
- Improved lift with lower swing weight and more stable shovel
- Easy, effortless skiing in all snow conditions
TITANAL TECHNOLOGY
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.
BENEFITS
- Optical effect
- Reduced weight, as the polyamide surface is done away with and the graphics are printed directly on the Titanal
