RIPSTICK

Designed and built to handle the most challenging terrain in any snow condition the mountain can dish out, the Ripstick series is the ultimate Freeskiing tool for demanding skiers. Constructed with a progressive shape and Amphibio Carbon Line technology to maximize weight savings and stability, the Ripstick delivers uncompromised versatility and smooth performance. With the addition of the Amphibio profile, Carbon Rods, and SST sidewall construction for power and precision, the Ripstick floats like a butterfly and springs like a ski.

RIPSTICK TOUR

The Elan Ripstick Tour was created for touring skiers with the intent to deliver the superior downhill performance of a freeride ski at a fraction of the weight for uphill efficiency. The series is designed from the ground up with the goal of pushing skiing performance to the maximum without losing focus on the functionality necessary for comfortable climbs. The engine that allows us to blend these concepts is Carbon Bridge Technology; a revolutionary solution where a single carbon rod is placed on top of the ski, to provide stability at speed and vibration absorption through the tip in variable snow, without a weight penalty.

IBEX

The IBEX series was designed for those who leave the chairlift behind and feel the best source of energy is human power. From exercise to adventure, The IBEX series incorporates Elan's Tubelite woodcore, which reduces weight and improves efficiency, while Bridge Technology results in stable, secure, and confident descents. Up or down, Elan's adventure series sets the standard in high performance touring skis.

LYNX

The LYNX series was designed for those who know that every gram counts when it comes to being fast on the ascent. These skis deliver an exceptionally light, yet strong and stable feel.
