Product Info

The Elan Ripstick 102 Skis are the big guns of the Ripstick women's line, ideal for ladies who thrive in steep and deep conditions but still need a ski that will perform on groomed slopes and hardpack. Elan's Amphibio technology--which combines camber on the inside edges and rocker on the outer edges--sounds hokey, but actually, does create incredible performance (we can vouch for it). The 102 mm waist offers sufficient float in all but the deepest conditions but still allows the ski to change directions without hesitation. The Ripstick skis have generated a lot of positive press in the short time they've been out, and we recommend slapping on a pair of 102's to see what all the commotion is about.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Amphibio® ProfileElan's unique design uses distinct "Left and Right" camber profiles - camber on the inside edges and rocker on the outside ones. The result is power and precision on the more heavily weighted inside edge with easier pivoting and smoother turn transitions on the outside edge.

Core

Tubelite Wood CoreTo create the TubeLite Wood Core, two super lightweight Carbon tubes are inserted into a lightweight laminated wood core. Measuring 5mm in diameter and hollow in their construction, these tubes run along the length of the ski following the arc of the side cut. They provide torsional stability and powerful rebound while allowing for material reduction of the core. The result is incredible lightweight response and stability.

Laminates

FiberglassA fiberglass reinforcement optimizes the flex pattern and enhances torsional rigidity of the ski. The fibers are positioned either above or below the ski core and improve the ski’s structural integrity.

VaporTip InsertsStrong and dynamic Tubelite woodcores are paired with lightweight composite Vaportip inserts in the tip and tail of the ski to lighten swing weight and reduce vibration, dramatically improving the ski's ride qualities.

Sidewalls

SST SidewallsThe SST Sidewall Construction provides quick, nimble and direct power transmission from the ski to snow as well as providing exceptional torsional rigidity.

Additional Features

TNT TechnologyElan’s unique TNT technology is a combination of innovations that provides the best balance of light weight construction with power and performance. The core of the TNT Technology is the Tubelite Wood Core with carbon rods along the edges of the ski, combined with Vapor Tip Inserts. The end result is an extremely lightweight high performance ski with exceptional power, cushioning and stability.

Tail Notch for Climbing Skins

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
