Our Best on Test – Stöckli Laser WRT Pro

Best for: Precision carving and elite-level control

The Stöckli Laser WRT Pro is quite simply a masterpiece. Choose between the WRT 12 GW or SRT 12 bindings, the WRT plate option delivers maximum precision and direct power transfer, while the SRT setup is slightly lighter and feels more forgiving.

Every detail speaks of Swiss craftsmanship: flawless finish, unmatched torsional stiffness, and an uncanny balance between power and accessibility. It’s a ski that rewards good technique but doesn’t punish you for easing off. Unbelievable performance, class-leading build quality, and surprisingly approachable - the WRT Pro was our Best on Test for good reason.


Most Exciting – Salomon Addikt Pro 66

Best for: Energetic, lively carving and playful edge-to-edge speed

If skiing could grin, this would be the ski doing it. The Salomon Addikt Pro 66 is pure fun, incredibly lively, snappy, and full of that “go-kart” agility on firm snow. Thanks to its Motion Flex Tail, it stays forgiving even when pushed hard, allowing quick corrections and easy transitions.

It’s the ski that makes you feel faster, lighter, and more confident every run. You’ll finish the day with legs burning and a smile that won’t fade.
