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.
Amphibio Profile / Asymmetrical Design – The Amphibio profile is a revolutionary ski design that integrates both rocker and camber profiles into dedicated left and right skis. Amphibio skis feature a cambered inside edge assuring precision, edge grip, and stability while a rockered outside edge provides forgiveness, turning ease and smooth transitions.
Tubelite Wood Core – To 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.
Carbon Deck Technology – A construction using Elan's TubeLite Woodcore, Carbon Rods, UD Carbon, and Flax Fiber in a carefully prescribed layup for a combination of power and versatility
Fiberglass – 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.
Carbon Rods – Lightweight Carbon tubes inserted into the ski and run the length of the ski following the arc of the side cut. The carbon tubes provide torsional stability and powerful rebound while allowing for material reduction of the core. The result is incredible lightweight response and stability.
UD Carbon – Unidirectional Carbon Fiber adds strength and life with minimal weight
SST (Slanted Sidewall Technology) Sidewall Construction – The SST Sidewall Construction provides quick, nimble and direct power transmission from the ski to snow as well as providing exceptional torsional rigidity.

Emulating the distinct design of the hybrid Shift bindings but with a new, lower and lighter LDN alpine toe, the Salomon Strive 12 GW Ski Bindings drop weight and get you closer to the snow for better snow feel, power transmission, and response. Compatible with both Alpine ISO 5355 and GripWalk ISO 23223 soles, the new Strive 12 GW sets the standard for lightweight precision.
LDN Toe – (Low, Direct, Neutral) Low profile toe, very close to snow.
Automatic Wing Adjustment – Adapts automatically and easily to your boot width and height. It also keeps release values constant for worn out boots.
Automatic Toe Height Adjustment
3 Part Heel Light – Low profile design with lighter construction
Low Profile Chassis – A low stand height improves your feel for the terrain and enhances power transmission to the ski.
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Take the best selling expert boot in the land, add a sleek now profile and better liner, and replace the bottom two buckles with a BOA® Fit System closure - you're talking about the new Atomic Hawx Prime 120 S BOA GW Ski Boots. The same awesome performance you know and love, with better ankle and heel retention and improved comfort over the top of the foot and instep means this winner keeps on getting better.
Last: 100 mm – Designed for average width feet with average and slightly taller insteps.
Memory Fit – Advanced heat-fitting technology creates a fully personalized shell, cuff and liner in minutes. The key is Memolink, Atomic's special additive that improves the moldability and stretch of their plastics. Expansion can be up to 6mm forefoot width and up to 10mm ankle width, resulting in a permanent and complete anatomical fit in minutes. See your bootfitter for details.
Adaptive Fit Cuff System – These boots come with a special spoiler in the back of the cuff. If you want a classic, cozy fit around the calf you can just leave the spoiler in. If you want more volume you can take the spoiler out. This makes the boot cuff slightly lower at the back, more tuliped and more open (equivalent to one cuff size larger). It's quick, easy and you don't need tools.
Energy Backbone – Reinforced along the lines of force at the rear of the cuff
Flex: 120 – A stiff flex for great power and response, suitable for fast and aggressive skiers.
True Flex – Atomic's unique True Flex additive helps PU and Grilamid shells maintain a consistent flex and feel in a wide variety of temperatures.
Mimic Platinum Liner – Improved with Power Ankle Lock (PAL) construction, 3D Stretch Toe, Thinsulate™ insulation, and Adaptive Fit System (AFS) Tongue
3D Stretch Toe Box – Asymmetrically shaped for left and right, the new 3D Stretch Toe Box takes first fit and customization potential to the next level. Its ‘Big Toe Friendly’ construction maximizes the liner’s available length allowing for a little extra stretch when important millimeters are required to achieve the perfect fit.
Power Ankle Lock (PAL) – A thicker, better defined area of foam around the malleolus to increase heel and ankle retention
Adaptive Fit System (AFS) Tongue – Adjustable for height with a simple Velcro attachment
3M™ Thinsulate™ Insulation – Keeps feet warm and responsive even in extremely cold and damp conditions.
Cuff – Polyurethane
Shell – Polyurethane
Energy Backbone – A reinforced, asymmetric backbone providing extra strength for powerful skiing plus enhanced lateral energy transmission for better edge grip.
Prolite – Instead of starting with a standard construction and cutting material away to save weight, Prolite does the opposite. It starts with the slimmest possible profile and then builds up reinforcements in key areas where strength is needed - like the Energy Backbone down each boot spine.
Power Shift 2.0 – Forward lean can be quickly adjusted to 13°, 15° (default) or 17°.
3˚ Shell Rotation
Dual Sided Cuff Alignment
2 6000 Series Aluminum Cuff Buckles
BOA® Fit System Lower Closure – Allows more even distribution of pressure over the forefoot and instep and infinite precise adjustment.
40mm Velcro Strap
Cantable GripWalk ISO 23223 Grip Pads
