Whether freshly groomed slopes, new snow, or heavy spring snow – the Montero AX conquers every terrain and all conditions. It owes its playful character to the lightweight, dynamic wooden core and the typical All Mountain Rocker. The new Tip and Tail Flex technology makes the shovel and tail even more supple, allowing harmonious initiation of turns. This means you are always in control, even in difficult conditions. In short, the Montero AX is the playful all-rounder you’ve always been searching for.
Features:
- 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 include better float in powder, less effort required, easier to turn on pistes, and 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 are reduced weight due to ultralight core, dynamic ski response and very durable.
- Full Edge Contact- 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.
- Solid Metal Edge- 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. The benefits are longer service life, reduced susceptibility to damage, more grinding possible, and increased stability.
- Adaptive Contact Length- 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 characteristic without sacrificing stability and grip during the turn. The benefits are higher stability and sense of security, and playful and good-natured at lesser tilt angles.
- Tail Rocker- A longer rocker at the tail with a flatter radius. Benefits include the edge is in contact with the snow is decreased, making the ski more playful. The longer rocker enables optimum grip when edging.
- Flex Torsion Control- 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 as result, the ski exhibits more torsional flex, making it easier to initiate turns. At the same time, when changing directions, the ski remains under control because the torsion can adapt. The benefits are, improved control when changing directions, and easier steering in and out of turns.
