The 2027 Stockli Montero AR with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings deserves a close look from carvers who want refined performance with all-mountain range, a frontside-leaning all-mountain ski tuned for medium to large turns. It pairs the playful lightness of the Montero line with giant-slalom stability, thanks to a light poplar and beech wood core and Titanal cut into the tip and tail. The result feels glued to the snow at speed yet still steers smoothly into and out of every turn. We paired the Montero AR with the Tyrolia Attack 14 GW because of the Attack’s light weight, reliability, and ease-of-use for all mountain and freeride skiers. Additionally, ample elastic travel and direct power transmission function to ensure these bindings cater perfectly to the needs of demanding freeriders.

Why we like it:

What makes the AR special is the way it holds a stable, GS-style midfoot while letting both ends breathe, which is the Tip and Tail Flex notching at work. Precise and supple at the same time is a hard trick to pull off, and Stockli reworked the layup this season for even more torsional grip fore and aft.

Who it's for:

Advanced to expert skiers who love to carve but want the freedom to ski off-trail without compromise. It is a strong choice for confident frontside skiers chasing medium and long turns who want one ski for fast groomers and the occasional soft-snow detour.

Highlights:

The reworked construction is the news: the titanal layer carrying the cut-in notches moves to the bottom of the ski while the full-width sheet shifts to the top, adding torsional rigidity at both ends without killing the playfulness at slower speeds. Flex Torsion Control and Race Base shaping sharpen edge response and glide, and an 84 mm waist over a light poplar and beech wood core keeps the whole thing lively. Tip and Tail Flex notches relax the flex fore and aft for precise, smooth steering, while Racing Sidewalls Black anchor a ski built for stable, high-speed carving. With a low stand height of just 17 millimeters, the 2027 Tyrolia Attack 14 offers an impressively close connection to the snow, delivering precise power transmission and a confident, locked-in feel. The FR Pro3 toe piece allows for a full 180 degrees of boot release, enhancing safety in a variety of fall scenarios, while the AFS (Anti-Friction Slider) ensures reliable re-centering and consistent release characteristics. Built to withstand hard use, the Attack 14 combines durability with performance, making it a go-to option for aggressive skiers who demand trust in their gear.

Things to consider:

Medium to large radii are what the AR was designed around, so skiers who want a quick, short-turn ski will find it asks for more room to work. Within the Montero line, the AR Pro sits above it for anyone who wants even more stiffness and high-speed power.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Ride your normal length here. A shorter option feels slightly quicker, while a longer one delivers maximum stability once you let the ski run.
