Stöckli Nela

The Nela is primarily a carving-focused ski designed for firm, groomed conditions. While its 88mm waist offers some versatility for varied terrain, it truly shines on packed snow where you can rely on its edge hold and stability.

The Paulownia core significantly reduces the overall weight of the ski without sacrificing structural integrity. This makes the Nela much easier to maneuver and less fatiguing to ride throughout the day compared to heavier, traditional wood-core skis.

Yes, the Nela is an excellent choice for intermediate to advanced skiers. It provides a predictable, smooth ride that helps build confidence in your carving technique without the punishing, stiff feel often found in dedicated race skis.

Titanal is a metal alloy that adds torsional rigidity and dampening to the ski. In the Nela, it works to minimize chatter on hard snow and provides a stable, planted feel, ensuring the ski stays quiet and composed even at higher speeds.

The rocker in the tip and tail allows for effortless turn initiation and easier pivoting in softer snow, while the camber underfoot ensures you maintain solid edge contact when you are carving on harder surfaces.

The flat tail provides a clean, powerful finish to your turns, giving you a sense of stability and acceleration as you exit the arc. It is a classic design choice that rewards skiers who like to drive through the end of their turn.
