If you’re a skier who finds joy in leaving no run untouched, you’ve come to the right page. The Ripstick 102 boasts a new design that intends to speak to both male and female rippers. Lightweight yet stable, this ski lives up to what Elan is known for—hard-charging skis that are fluid and precise.

Two carbon rods underfoot provide insane energy rebound and stability while keeping the ski incredibly light—we’re talking 1,720 grams at 182 cm. That’s touring ski territory, folks. A soft flex in the tip enables you to turn on a dime in the trees and moguls. In firm conditions, a soft tip can be prone to chatter, so Elan added flax fibers to dampen the soft tip, giving you the confidence to charge in less than ideal conditions.

The bread and butter of this ski comes from the Amphibio tech—the inside edge has more camber than the outside, making turn entry and exit feel more natural than breathing. The Ripstick 102 received high praise from our testers, specifically in carving and responsiveness. “With a fully revamped design, it’s like Elan was listening to my calls from the chairlift,” cried a joyful tester. “From the moment I put this beauty on edge, it took the cue and drove my edges into a playful dance down the mountain. I probably annoyed the people next to me as I giggled across the hill all afternoon.”

Plus, with Elan making strides to reach their goal of carbon neutrality by 2045, you can rest easy knowing that your Ripstick 102 is helping to preserve pow days for generations to come. Whether you are an intermediate skier looking to explore beyond the groomers with a confident and predictable ski, or an advanced skier who loves the turn entry of a playful ski, the Ripstick 102 is your ride.
