The Elan Ripstick Tour 88 W is the ski the touring world has been waiting for. Light, lively, fast, stable, robust and versatile - all these characteristics combined in one ski. Developed by female freeride athletes and guides who demand perfection in any terrain, this ski offers a ground-breaking construction that minimises weight and maximises performance while maintaining a playful feel.
With an 88 mm waist, this ski is very light and easy to manoeuvre, yet extremely powerful - a true modern touring ski. The Ripstick 88 Tour W sets new standards in alpinism, where lightweight equipment that is convincing in powder and remains stable in variable conditions in the backcountry is essential. The narrow waist ensures safety on descents and is ideal for long, comfortable ascents.
With a weight of around 1170 g per ski, Elan has achieved the optimum weight for women's touring skis without sacrificing downhill stability and performance. The CARBON BRIDGE TECHNOLOGY integrates a carbon rod reinforcement that concentrates the ski's energy and ensures a smooth ride. The precisely measured length of the reinforcement reduces vibrations and tip tip wobble.
The reduced sidewall design gives the ski a unique look, reduces weight and increases edge pressure. With its freeride profile and shape, the Ripstick Tour 88 W is the perfect combination of weight and performance for all backcountry conditions.
Experience the perfect symbiosis of lightness and performance with the Elan Ripstick Tour 88 W - your ultimate companion for unforgettable touring adventures.
