evo.com | Elan Skis > The Elan Ripstick 94 Tour Skis bridge the gap between "light enough for long tours" and "confident enough in all conditions" as well as any touring stick on the market, with a light-but-not-too-light construction based on Elan's Tubelite Core and using the proven asymmetrical Amphibio profile that puts camber under the inside edge and rocker under the outside. Ease of turn initiation, especially in difficult snow and technical terrain, is about as good as it gets, and the ski is stable enough to use for moderate lift-served skiing in a pinch. Carbon Bridge Techology 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. 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. 360deg Sidewall Pyramid shaped sidewall material is positioned throughout the whole body of the ski, increasing high speed stability and vibration absorption. We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. | Women's Elan Ripstick 94 Tour Skis 2025 - 157
