Stockli Montero AR Ski / Strive 13 System - One Color - 180cm, "The Montero AR paired with Strive 13 bindings are the perfect combination for your go-anywhere skis. New for winter 2023, the Montero AR is the wider model in Stockli's new frontside all-mountain line. Melding the chatter-free smoothness, power, edge grip, and responsiveness of the Laser GS with the playful and versatile feel of the Montero AX, the Montero AR offers a truly unique skiing experience. An all-mountain carving ski that's actually capable of skiing the entire mountain, the Montero AR has an 84 mm waist underfoot and slight rocker in the tail to help with soft winter powder and spring slush. With the Stockli Montero AR, the mountain is your personal playground. Flex Torsion Control improves turn initiation and edge control during transitions Solid Metal Edge Light allows more edge sharpening services and a longer lifetime for the ski without increasing weight Wider at the tip for longer edge contact length means enhanced grip in turns Winter 2023/24 model Equipped With Adaptive Contact Length (ACL) ACL is the combination of Stockli's Full Edge Contact (FEC) and Tip and Tail Rocker technologies. ACL provides a greater edge angle, which means more of the edge is in contact with the snow, for more grip and stability through the turn. The playful feel of the ski remains without needing to forgo stability. Full Edge Contact (FEC) The shortest distance between two points is a straight line; and a curved line is more distance. The concept applies to ski edges also-the wider the curve, the longer the ski edge. FEC construction features wider shovel dimensions (plus a wider tail on GS models) for a more pronounced sidecut producing longer edge contact length. That means faster initiation and enhanced grip through the full turn. Light Core (LC) Stockli's LC is built with woods that maintain an optimal balance of low-weight, durability, and responsiveness. LC cores also offer enhanced durability and lifespan. Solid Metal Edge Light The same edge thickness as Stockli's Solid Metal Edge (SME), but the edge is not as thickly built into the ski. The result is a lighter edge that is still more durable than traditional edges, helping prolong the lifespan of the ski. Tail Rocker (TR) Tail Rocker is a revised design of Stockli's ski tail bend-now offering a longer bend and flatter radius than previous iterations. The increased length of the tail rocker results in a more playful feel, while the flatter radius provides enhanced grip when edging. Flex Torsion Control (FTC) These are special S-shaped cut-outs in the tip and tail of the ski. The purpose is to soften flex and reduce torsion forces in the tip and tail. This allows torsion to remain adaptable and causes turn initiation and edge release to feel easier and smoother."""
