What's your first impression of this ski? How did it feel?

There’s a reason why Stockli is compared to sports car brands. As soon as you step on the ski, it feels solid and planted, and gives you confidence to go fast right away. The best edge hold of a non-race ski gives you confidence to lay them over or fire off some snappy shorts.

For what type of terrain would you recommend this ski? Why does it perform well in that terrain?

This ski is best for groomers. An expert could handle them in the bumps, but someone less skillful, they could get taken for a ride.

What's the appropriate ability level and/or style for this ski? Why is it appropriate for that type of skier?

This ski is for advanced to expert skiers due to its stiffness, and lack of agility or versatility. Strong, technical skiers will be rewarded though and when you get it right, it feels dreamy.

Anything else you want to tell us about your experience on these skis?

They cost a lot for a reason, I’m still not sure if the price tag is worth it though.

What's your first impression of this ski? How did it feel?

An extremely stable ski that immediately inspired confidence, even at high speeds. It held exceptionally well on ice and delivered a powerful, precise feel underfoot especially for short carving turns.

For what type of terrain would you recommend this ski? Why does it perform well in that terrain?

Excels on all types of groomers, including firm, icy, and mixed conditions. The ski maintains strong performance and reliability regardless of surface variability.

What's the appropriate ability level and/or style for this ski? Why is it appropriate for that type of skier?

Recommended for expert skiers, but strong advanced intermediates progressing in carving could also benefit. It rewards proper technique while remaining approachable enough for skilled riders developing their edge control.

Anything else you want to tell us about your experience on these skis?

It allows for a relaxed, confident ride when cruising, yet responds immediately when pushed. Exceptional performance on ice with a very high level of confidence.

Is smooth and grounded while having a quick and powerful radius. But also can make more fluid bigger sweeping turns.

What's your first impression of this ski? How did it feel?

As usual, Stockli doesn’t disappoint. The Laser SC is a precise and powerful frontside carver that feels smooth and stable through pretty much all forms of groomer snow, which we have today! These were easy to turn but do require a higher edge angle to access the most performance.

For what type of terrain would you recommend this ski? Why does it perform well in that terrain?

Groomers are where these shine. They do ok in soft groomed snow but in my opinion are too narrow, stiff, and traditionally cambered for powder, corn, etc.

What's the appropriate ability level and/or style for this ski? Why is it appropriate for that type of skier?

Advanced skiers will get the most out of the Laser SC, I think intermediates could get a bit overwhelmed or just not be able to access the performance band, as these do require some skill and leverage to get them to really perform.

If you could change anything about these skis, what would you change and why?

Anything I would change would make this ski less appropriate for its intended use, so no!

What's your first impression of this ski? How did it feel?

The ski made it feel like the snow had been magically regrouped when I was switching skis. After just a few turns, confidence was high. It does want to stay in a smaller turn, but this ski does make you say “ damn I’m good” when skiing on it. Easy to change turns and doesn’t feel like a runaway train. Maybe a little much for bump skiing.

For what type of terrain would you recommend this ski? Why does it perform well in that terrain?

It’s built to rip groomers and you won’t want to do anything else. It’s just too fun. The construction makes everything feel smooth but energy from turn to turn is still abundant.

What's the appropriate ability level and/or style for this ski? Why is it appropriate for that type of skier?

I don’t think it would punish an intermediate skier (much) and it won’t let down an expert skier.

If you could change anything about these skis, what would you change and why?

I don’t think I’d change a thing.

What's your first impression of this ski? How did it feel?

I was surprised by the ski, for a short zippy carving ski. It was a lot more robust than I had anticipated. It just had so much energy in and out of turns, I was finding my feet leaving the ground in transitions! I was smiling while riding the ski for sure, if it were any warmer, I probably would’ve ended up with bugs in my teeth.

For what type of terrain would you recommend this ski? Why does it perform well in that terrain?

Front side groomers.

Advanced to expert skiers. Intermediate skiers may find this a bit intimidating.

If you could change anything about these skis, what would you change and why?

I really enjoyed how much energy the ski has, it felt really grounded when locked into a turn, but then was able to break loose and get off the ground a little bit. I found it confidence inspiring and fun.
