Stockli Stormrider XL Alpine Skis

I have this ski in the prior version (blue & white with the flames on the tip) in a 194cm. It's a beast, especially so long. It's basically a GS race ski fattened up. And, when I say a GS race ski, I mean a Stoeckli race ski - read: a real race ski. It is fast as lightning and powers through anything. Once you get used to it, it is surprisingly agile, but it will throw you if you let it get away from you and sit back. I also have a 177 cm Laser Cross Pro, which is probably the best ski I've ever used and this one is somewhat similar but more biased towards off-piste. I would demo the lengths, if you can, as I didn't like this one too short (maybe because I'm now used to it in the monster length).

These skis make me want a new pair of skis every year. They power through clumped snow, powder and hard packed. I ski mostly steeps and trees, these skis handle the conditions excellently.
