Expanding the series, Elan's new Ripstick 88 Womens Ski was crafted for your strong intermediate to expert skier looking for stability and performance in a lightweight package. Elan's TNT Technology is the combination of a TubeLite Woodcore, tip to tail Carbon Tubes and VaporTip Inserts that give the ski its power and weight reduction. The TubeLite Woodcore has two 5mm thick Carbon Tubes that run the length of the ski, following the arc of the sidecut create an energetic, but powerful feeling without adding any extra weight to the ski. VaporTip Inserts improve flotation and dampen out vibrations when you are really moving down the mountain, even in dicey conditions. The Ripstick 86 has SST Sidewalls that improve your power transfer, add torsional power and provide you with a solid edge hold, on even the toughest snow conditions. If you want a versatile ski that is capable of slicing down the groomers, diving through the bumps and giving you an enjoyable skiing experience, the new Elan Ripstick 86 W will not disappoint you.

Hi, my name is Kaity, I just got off riding the Elan Ripstick 88 for women. This is a great all-mountain ski. It is, I mean, it definitely lives up to its name.. it rips on the mountain, it needs speed. To get down a couple greens it got a little squirrely underfoot but it holds an edge extremely well. It does an amazing job initiating your turns, it just honestly feels like you're floating. Super, super lightweight ski. I think that this would be amazing for someone really hard charging down the frontside, who wants to hit the trees a little bit but great for that intermediate to advanced-intermediate skier.Hide

Hi my name is Tori. I just got done riding the Elan Ripstick 88. I would recommend this ski to an advanced intermediate to expert skie. This ski is your all-mountain sk,i however, I would recommend taking it more on the frontside. If it does snow and you want to go in the trees and all that you definitely can take this ski back there. It has a strong, stable edge, you're able to have smooth transitions turn to turn. And yeah, this is a great ski for anyone who's looking to do all-mountain but a little bit more frontside.Hide

Hey I'm Sam I just got done riding the Elan Ripstick 88. I think this is a great frontside ski. It holds an edge really, really well and the wood core makes it super poppy. I think this was still lightand playful enough that if she got some fresh snow it would float on some powder. I think it would be a great ski for an intermediate to advanced skier.Hide
