Elan Ripstick 96 Black Edition 2020

The Elan Ripstick 96 Black Edition 2020 is back by popular demand–and not just for its sexy facade. Underneath that gorgeous, all-black topsheet is an additional layer of carbon wrapped around the paulownia, birch and poplar wood core. This boosts rigidity and complements the already tried-and-true performance of the ski’s Amphibio technology–a cambered inside edge for superior grip and rockered outside edge for easy turn transitioning. You know what they say about going black…

FREESKIER tester thoughts: “The perfect name for this ski, it friggin’ destroys everything in its path, but is also very maneuverable in the chunder.”

“So stable and easy to engage the turn. This ski excels in the steeps, too, especially with chopped up snow.”
