Anyone skied the new 102 Stormrider? What did you think?

[RyansFaith]

Truth be told, I have been salivating over Storm Riders since the Asteroid went bye bye.

I am hoping I can find a pair for a good price someplace this year (and convince the wife I need to add these to my quiver).

Anyone skied these?

What were your experiences on them? I want to use them as a RM or Western one quiver ski. I mostly stick with resort and side country stuff.

I am a technical middle weight (155lb) skier but I like carving, especially early season. I spend a lot of time in steep bumps, glades. When it snows I like to get on real steeps etc.

Anyone that has skied these of last years 105, does this seem to fit the bill for these?

Always wanted a pair but getting a good deal was impossible. Knowing that they were changing for 2022 I walked into the Stockli shop, that is all he sells. Brought $900 cash asked if he would take $900 for storm rider 95’s with pivot 14’s mounted. He thought about and said deal. I use them for my hard pack ski.

I have 2 pair of the old Green/black 95's that I love for my on-piste do everything ski. Sooo smooooth. So much better than the Kastle mx89 which I will sell this fall. Have thought the 105 would be a sweet do everything ski, but haven't ridden it. I did try one of the steel top sheet 05's a few years ago and they neutered the tip. Way softer than my old ones, which aren't super stiff to begin with. Monster 98's are way stiffer for example.

Keep hunting...

^ that seems like a deal if the Pivots were mounted with right BSL for somebody. Also the plaid top sheet ones have been the stiffest the versions later are softer and then for 21/22 bit stiffer but still not plaid top sheet. Just sold a new (3 day skied) SR95, plaid ones I liked better. Tails on the new versions are wider w/o that last little taper.

FWIW- Someone posted over in the OR thread that Hoodoo is selling off their Stokli demo fleet
