evo.com | Elan Skis > With a stiffer flex and twice as many Carbon Rods than the regular Ripstick 96, the Elan Ripstick 96 Black Edition Skis feels stronger and more lively underfoot and stays planted through tough conditions with confidence. If you love the regular version but want a touch more power and stability, this is your ski. We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. Sintered UHMW Base 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. 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. QuadRod Reinforcement Four carbon tubes are built into the wood core for lightweight and powerful rebound. | Elan Ripstick 96 Black Edition Skis 2025 - 182
