Stick Snow Machines
Grizzly
The Grizzly is SMI's low-energy snowmaking stick, reducing compressed air requirements by up to 75% compared to traditional sticks while maximizing coverage in windy conditions.
The 2023 redesign significantly expanded the Grizzly's operational range through dual-jet nucleation technology, additional flow steps, and refined nozzle configurations. Operators consistently report reliable snow quality in marginal temperature conditions.
Available in fully automated or manual configurations, with a variety of head options, boom lengths, and mounting configurations to match your system requirements.
Axis
The Axis Stick is SMI's go-to solution for Nordic and cross-country trails, designed for lightweight deployment with minimal maintenance requirements.
Featuring simple on/off controls and a 360° pivoting head, operators can manually reposition the Axis to match shifting wind conditions—especially useful on narrow trails where wind direction affects coverage.
Ideal for cat tracks, narrow trails, and Nordic venues where portability and ease of use are priorities.
Bullseye
The Bullseye handles targeted snowmaking in tight spaces, such as lift terminals, cat tracks, and narrow trails.
Featuring three nucleating nozzles for reliable production across temperature ranges, the Bullseye combines simple manual controls with cost-effective operation. Lightweight and easy to deploy, it's designed for targeted coverage where you need it.
A practical stick solution for resorts looking to extend snowmaking coverage without major infrastructure investment.
