Elan Ripstick Tour 88 - Women

How could Elan make the Ripstick 88 any better? Easy...make it lighter so you can use it in the backcountry. The Elan Ripstick Tour Women's 88 jukes, jives, and now climbs with aplomb. It turns out the Amphibio technology works supremely in backcountry conditions just like it does off-piste at the resort. The tips of the skis are not only rockered up for excellent float, they are also slightly rockered from side to side, making turn initiation a breeze, even in junky conditions. The 88 Tour has a smallish turning radius for carving up corn and powder while dancing through trees and down tight couloirs. Elan's Carbon Bridge Technology keeps the ski fun as you bounce out of turns and have your way with the terrain instead of the other way around. The bridge is a carbon tube that runs down the center of the ski which offers damping as well as a lively ride. Elan didn't skimp on the durability with pyramid-shaped ABS sidewalls.

• Amphibio profile* means smooth turns with easy initiation in all conditions.
• Carbon Bridge Technology is a carbon tube running lengthwise for vibration reduction and rebound.
• Full 360° pyramid-shaped ABS sidewalls are quite durable and also dampen the ride.
• Two layers of carbon reinforcement mean this isn't a floppy noodle.

* Please note you will have a left and a right ski with the Amphibio technology.
