Take a proven winner and make it even smoother and more confident on chattery, hard snow and you've got the Elan Ripstick 96 Skis. Keeping the Amphibio profile, TubeLite Core and Carbon Rods that made the previous version a success and adding UD Carbon and Flax Fiber makes this great ski that much better.
The Elan Ripstick 96 was rebuilt for this season. It's the strongest it has ever been but it is still one of the easiest skis to ski. Win, win. It offers incredible performance, grip, maneuverability, and predictability. It inspires confidence and is one of the most versatile options in the all-mountain category. There's a reason it's still one of our favourite skis.
With countless awards, Ripstick 96 has established itself as the cornerstone of Elan's freeride collection. Now in its third generation, Amphibio Profile still delivers an uncompromising trio of grip, rebound, and maneuverability, with an even smoother and more stable ride, thanks to new Carbon Deck Technology. Carbon rods and unidirectional carbon bands are placed strategically along the edges to deliver a seriously responsive and silky-smooth ride at a ridiculously light weight. Access to effortless power and additional vibration damping is enhanced by a new 3D trapezoid shape reinforced by environmentally friendly and lightweight Flax Fiber. Whether you prefer a wider footprint for everyday skiing at the resort or are looking for all-mountain versatility for changing conditions, Ripstick 96 is recognized for its ability to turn good times on the hill into great memories.
