The Line You Choose: Inside Stöckli’s New 26/27 Ski Collection

In elite skiing, the perfect line is never an accident. It is a deliberate act of reading terrain, trusting instinct, and relying on equipment that responds with absolute precision. For the 2026/27 winter season, Stöckli places that idea at the centre of its new ski collection: the line you choose defines the ski you need. And whether that line is fast, playful, exploratory, or buried beneath a fresh blanket of powder, Stöckli’s answer is the same—every ski is handcrafted in Malters, Switzerland, with identical care, identical processes, and identical devotion to performance.

This year’s collection is not simply a refresh. It is a statement of identity from a brand that continues to build skis the traditional way, even as the demands of modern skiing diversify. Stöckli’s athletes—Marco Odermatt, Maxime Chabloz, Alexis Monney—each represent a different philosophy of movement on snow. Their influence is woven through the new range, but the message is universal: skiing is not about choosing one style. It is about choosing your line.

The Precision Line: Laser WRT and Laser WRT Pro

Speed is a language Stöckli speaks fluently. Nowhere is that clearer than in the Laser WRT and Laser WRT Pro, two skis that carry unmistakable racing DNA. Freeride athlete Maxime Chabloz may be known for his fluidity in powder, but he also understands the value of a ski that can carve a clean, decisive arc on hard snow. These models deliver exactly that.

The Laser WRT Pro is the flagship of Stöckli’s performance category. It is built for skiers who demand explosive acceleration, unwavering edge grip, and the ability to hold a line at high speed without compromise. The Laser WRT offers a slightly more accessible interpretation of the same philosophy—still sharp, still powerful, but tuned for skiers who want precision without the full intensity of a race‑calibrated machine.

Both skis embody Stöckli’s belief that power and control are inseparable. For skiers who thrive on rhythm, speed, and technical accuracy, these are instruments of pure intent.

The Playful Line: Laser SX and Laser CX

Not every skier wants to push the limits of speed. Some want a ski that turns the mountain into a place of ease, comfort, and enjoyment. Stöckli’s new easy‑going piste models—the Laser SX and Laser CX—are designed for exactly that.

The Laser SX is a versatile, forgiving ski that smooths out the ride while still offering enough stability for confident carving. It is ideal for skiers who want a relaxed feel without sacrificing quality. The Laser CX is the most playful member of the Laser family, built for effortless turns and a light, responsive character on groomed runs.

These skis represent Stöckli’s softer side: craftsmanship applied not to intensity, but to enjoyment. They are built for skiers who value fluidity over force, and comfort over competition.

The All‑Mountain Line: Montero AR Pro, Montero AR, Montero AX, Orea AX

The mountain does not always present a single type of terrain, and neither should a ski. Stöckli’s all‑mountain lineup is shaped by the experience of Downhill World Cup winner Alexis Monney, who spends his race days on full‑blooded competition skis but reaches for the Montero AR Pro when he leaves the groomed slopes behind.

The Montero AR Pro is a hybrid of race‑inspired precision and freeride adaptability. It is built for skiers who want one ski that can carve cleanly on hardpack and remain stable in mixed conditions. The Montero AR offers a balanced, versatile feel for varied terrain, while the Montero AX introduces a more playful, forgiving personality. The Orea AX rounds out the category with a comfort‑oriented design that prioritises smooth handling and premium construction.

Together, these skis form a spectrum of all‑mountain capability. They are built for skiers who want to explore the entire mountain without switching equipment.

The Powder Line: Stormrider 108

When the snow is deep and untouched, even Marco Odermatt trades his race skis for something wider. The Stormrider 108 is Stöckli’s new freeride highlight, developed with Maxime Chabloz for days spent in powder, on steep faces, and in terrain where speed and float matter more than edge angles.

The Stormrider 108 is powerful yet agile, built to maintain stability at speed while offering the buoyancy needed for deep snow. It is the ski for skiers who see fresh snow not as a condition, but as an invitation.

One Factory, One Philosophy

What sets Stöckli apart is not just the diversity of its collection, but the consistency of its craftsmanship. Every ski—whether a race‑inspired WRT or a powder‑hungry Stormrider—is built on the same production line in Malters. The same hands shape the cores, lay the fibres, and finish the edges. The same processes ensure uniform quality. The same passion drives the work.

In an industry increasingly defined by mass production, Stöckli remains committed to handcraft. It is a philosophy that does not change with trends, athlete preferences, or terrain. It is the foundation of the brand’s identity.

The Line Is Yours

The 26/27 Stöckli collection is not about choosing between speed, playfulness, versatility, or powder. It is about recognising that skiing is personal. The perfect line is the one you choose, and Stöckli’s role is to build the ski that makes that line possible.

Whether you carve with precision, explore with curiosity, or chase fresh snow wherever it falls, the new collection offers a ski built for your way of moving through the mountains. The craftsmanship is constant. The passion is constant. The line is yours.
