The Elan Ripstick 88W inspires the spirit of adventure, whether you're carving down groomers or exploring the backcountry.
These skis are best for those ranging from intermediate to advanced levels. For the 24/25 ski season, Elan has fine-tuned the Ripstick's construction and shape, enhancing its performance. By adjusting the side cut radius, tweaking lengths, and softening the tip and tail, they've crafted a ski that excels in maneuverability and handles varied snow conditions with ease.
The Ripstick 88 boasts an asymmetric design and Elan's signature Amphibo rocker profile. This innovative combination provides optimal camber on the inside edge and increased rocker on the outside edge, resulting in precise control and stability on both groomed trails and off-piste adventures.
These skis aren’t just limited to resort skiing. With the option to pair them with touring bindings, these lightweight skis become the perfect tools for backcountry exploration. Whether you're seeking a balanced '50/50' ski or dedicated touring gear, the Ripsticks are ready to take you anywhere.
