Product Summary
The ski in details
Whether as a freeride ski or on the slopes, a true all-rounder like the Stormrider 88 knows how to impress everywhere.
Rocker technologies from the freeride segment provide excellent lift in fresh snow. The waist width of 88 mm and the sporty tailoring also allow great carving on the slopes. Thanks to slight adjustments to the wood core, it’s now even more playful and agile than ever.
Technologies
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.
- 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.
- Reduced weight due to ultralight cores
- Dynamic ski response
- Very durable
Thin Glass Laminate
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.
- Lighter in weight, same degree of flex
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.
- 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.
- Highly robust
- High impact resistance
- Damping properties
Tail Rocker
Rocker: A longer rocker at the tail with a flatter radius.
- 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.
- Improved lift with lower swing weight and more stable shovel
- Easy, effortless skiing in all snow conditions
Titanal Technology Pro
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.
- Enhanced scratch resistance
- Agreeable haptic
- Optical effect
- Reduced weight, as the graphics are printed directly on the Titanal
