Elan Ripstick 108 Ski - 2026 Orange, 168cm

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""The Ripstick 108 has become my daily driver because it adapts to whatever the mountain throws at me. On groomers, the Amphibio profile gives me tons of grip and confidence, but when I duck into soft snow or trees, the ski pivots and floats with ease. The carbon tubes make it snappy and responsive without being harsh. It really feels like a true quiver killer for freeride.""Who It’s ForAdvanced All-Mountain and Freeride Skiers:Perfect for riders who want one ski that’s wide enough for powder but still quick and precise on groomers. Best for intermediate to expert skiers who like to mix carving, slashing, and freeride-style lines. What It’s ForEveryday Resort and Freeride Exploration:Optimized for skiers who want stability on firm snow and float in soft conditions. The 108mm waist and Amphibio rocker/camber profile make it a versatile choice for ripping groomers in the morning and hunting powder stashes all afternoon. Why We Like ItPowerful, Playful, and Always Ready to Rip:We like the Ripstick 108 because it delivers reliable edge hold, float, and agility in one package. The Tubelite Woodcore with carbon tubes keeps the ski light and energetic, while fiberglass and flax laminates add smoothness and durability. It’s a freeride-friendly ski that thrives as a daily driver no matter the conditions."
