Stöckli Stormrider 95 review 2019

AWARD
Best Accessibility/Performance!

PROSKILAB™ reviewers' comments

Voted "Best ski" last year, the Stormrider 95 lost a few slots this season in the milder snow conditions. It nonetheless remains a reference in this market segment.

The ski has effectively retained all of its qualities. Its behaviour is remarkably reassuring both on and off the runs, and it is predictable and surprise free. It's incredibly easy to control and extremely simple to use.

Relatively stiff, the reviewers also noted its remarkable stability and its capacity to absorb uneven terrain. Its capacity to adapt to choppy snow and crud are impressive: the ski ploughs through deep snow without losing any of its stiffness.

The Stormrider 95 is a great ski for anyone looking for a high-performing tool to take both on and off the marked runs, and will please all good to expert riders (with a nice thick wallet).

Review: Pros

  • Consistent
  • Versatile both on and off piste
  • Stable
  • Rides well in the crud and spring snow
  • Reassuring, predictable behaviour

Review: Cons

  • In softer snow conditions, the reviewers regretted a slight lack of punch, especially compared to the more playful Kore 93

Manufacturer's remarks

The Stormrider 95 is in its element as much on as off piste. Like all the Stormriders, the design is printed directly on the Titanal surface. With its Powder Rocker, it is torsionally stiff, boasts directional stability and yet remains very light. The ski has been designed to cover all terrains and snow conditions with ease. It's a ski that seems to read your mind, instantly translating your thoughts into action.
