For Big Lines and Bold Descents – The Freeride Ski That Charges Hard and Floats Easy
The Elan Ripstick 102 in 182 cm is engineered for advanced to expert skiers who want a high-speed, big-mountain ski that can float in soft snow, grip on firm terrain, and stay composed in variable conditions. Lightweight yet powerful, this ski thrives in technical descents, open bowls, and chopped-up afternoon laps with equal ease.
At the core is Elan’s signature Amphibio profile, an asymmetrical design with camber along the inside edge for edge grip and rocker on the outside for smooth, intuitive turning. The TubeLite woodcore, reinforced with dual carbon rods and Carbon Line Technology, ensures the ski stays responsive, stable, and vibration-damp—even when conditions get demanding. A 102 mm waist provides the perfect balance between powder float and edge control, making it ideal for all-mountain freeride versatility.
At 182 cm, this ski suits taller, stronger, or more aggressive skiers who need a platform that can keep up when speed and terrain demand more.
