Praised by magazine testers and professional skiers alike for it’s unique blend of lightweight performance, the Ripstick 96 is proven to be the ultimate freeride ski in all snow conditions.
If a smoothness indicator existed for skis, the Ripstick 96 would be off the charts! A true freeride ski that doubles as an all-mountain ski for those who want ultimate versatility on the mountain. The Ripstick 96 uses the best technology and lightest weight materials with a modern shape and taper design that make it a perfect choice for every day, on any mountain. It's wide enough to handle powder yet narrow enough in the waist to rip up the front side. With Amphibio profile for exceptional maneuverability and edge grip, SST sidewalls for direct power transmission, and TNT technology for dynamic power, this multiple award winning ski provides a silky smooth ride no matter where your mountain exploration takes you.

These skis WILL rip. The 2021 Ripstick has a noticably stiffer shovel than the 2020 version, and improved torsional stiffness. They were the buzz at last year’s testing sessions, and after three sessions over three days with a wide variety of snow and weather conditions, this ski proved it can handle all conditions and speeds while remaining stable. Even at extreme angles of attack, there was no need to adjust one’s balance point as the skis went over rollers or through the crud. The skis seem to hold their line no matter what conditions you are ripping through. Full disclosure: I am a long-time Salomon skier. My shop does not sell Elan skis. I rarely pay for skis, and never retail, but I paid retail for a pair of these.
