Stöckli is bringing its race-driven performance back to Mt. Hood this summer, continuing its investment in the next generation of alpine racers through the return of the Stöckli Test Center.
Known for its Swiss precision, elite craftsmanship, and World Cup pedigree, Stöckli has long been trusted by some of the fastest skiers in the world — including four-time Overall World Cup champion Marco Odermatt, Thomas Tumler, and Alexis Monney. Now, the iconic brand is once again giving junior athletes the opportunity to experience the same high-performance equipment used on the World Cup circuit.
Following a successful debut last summer, the Stöckli Test Center will return to Mt. Hood from June 14–28, operating daily from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. The center will be conveniently located in the parking lot of the Cascade Ski Club & Lodge in Government Camp, Oregon, creating an accessible hub for athletes training on the glacier this summer.
The test center offers junior racers the chance to demo a wide range of Stöckli race skis, compare setups, and work directly with the Stöckli race staff. For developing athletes, the experience provides valuable insight into equipment selection and performance tuning at one of the premier summer training venues in North America.
“Our goal is simple — give young athletes access to top-level equipment and help support their progression in the sport,” said Max Wingard, Stöckli Race and Promotions Manager.
Mt. Hood remains a key destination for summer alpine training, attracting athletes, coaches, and national teams from around the world. By returning to the mountain, Stöckli continues to strengthen its growing presence within the junior racing community while reinforcing the brand’s deep roots in elite-level ski racing.
Athletes and families are encouraged to pre-register through Stöckli’s official demo portal ahead of their visit. Athletes under 18 must have registration completed by a parent or guardian.
