Elan Ripstick 96 Ski
The Elan Ripstick 96 Ski is a lightweight, versatile freeride ski designed to balance confident on-trail performance with agile off-trail exploration. Its Tubelite Woodcore uses lightweight carbon tubes running along the ski’s sidecut to deliver torsional stability and powerful rebound, while Carbon Deck Technology adds Carbon Rods, UD Carbon, and Flax Fiber for a strong, responsive platform that remains smooth through variable snow. Elan’s Amphibio Profile combines an asymmetric shape and profile to promote edge grip and power on the inside edge with easier turn initiation and maneuverability on the outside edge, while SST (Slanted Sidewall Technology) provides direct power transmission and torsional rigidity. With a 96mm waist in the 182cm, an 18.8m radius, and a sintered base, the Ripstick 96 offers the versatility to carve groomers, move quickly through trees, and remain nimble and composed when conditions soften.
Performance Profile: For intermediate to expert skiers looking for a lightweight everyday freeride ski that can confidently transition between groomed snow, variable conditions, and powder. The Ripstick 96 is particularly well suited to skiers who value quick, intuitive maneuverability and low swing weight but still want strong edge control, stability, and rebound when skiing aggressively.
