This Elan Ripstick 86 is an excellent ski, easy to use anywhere.
It is for everyone and for every type of snow conditions. It shines by its sheer facility but also by its performance, which doesn’t jump out at you immediately, but when you start digging you find it!
It pivots ultra-easily and repositioning is a doddle. Turning curves and emergency turns is easy, you never get stuck in a turn or trapped by the ski edge.
Pressure on the edges is no problem and fluidity very reassuring and you can use substantial angulation.
The high-cambered tip is really nice and doesn’t vibrate. The structure makes some noise but nothing to worry about.
In choppy snow it pivots like a dream, repositions fast out of the snow and turns on a dime. It is very reassuring by the way it absorbs any bumps and lumps in the terrain.
This Elan Rip Stick 86 can go fast, even on hard snow thanks to its good grip.
We strongly recommend this ski for anyone. A genuine All Mountain Swiss knife! And finally – its weight let’s you economize your energy.
This ski definitely wins our FIRST Award in its category.
