The Elan Ripstick 96 is an excellent ski for the strong intermediate to expert skier looking for quick turns and agility anywhere on the mountain. Elan's TNT Technology combines the VaporTip Inserts, TubeLite Woodcore and advanced composite materials to create an impressively lightweight ski that is packed with power. The TubeLite Woodcore has 5mm thick carbon tubes that follow the sidecut of the ski that add responsiveness and stability without adding any extra weight. VaporTip Inserts reduce the swingweight of the ski, improve floatation in powder and deflect negative vibrations caused by crud or difficult snow conditions. Elan's Amphibio Rocker has a rockered outside edge on the tip and a cambered inside edge that improves your floatation and quick turning ability anywhere on the mountain. If you want a ski that feels light on your feet, packed with power that goes anywhere you want to go, the Elan Ripstick 96 is a perfect option for you.
