Elan Ripstick 96 Black Edition

Elan

With glowing reviews, Elan’s Ripstick 96 Black Edition is the sleek freeride machine that will help you tame the whole mountain. Our rowdy crew wrote pages of praise over this ski’s versatility, and for good reason! “Such a spectacular ride all over the mountain! Every turn feels effortless,” tester Leslie Resnick cheered. Michelle Cox claims it turns “smoother than the smear on your breakfast pocket bagel.” With a 136-mm tip and 96-mm of plank underfoot, the Ripstick will surf with style and grace through a fresh blanket of cold smoke. But don’t be fooled; it can also park a mean arc on the hardpack. The skis’ signature Amphibio Portfolio delivers rocker on the outside edges and camber on the inside, making the Ripstick 96 an easy choice to take out in variable conditions or after a humble storm. Simply put, this thing rips (pun intended).
