Maximum Float. Maximum Speed. Maximum Confidence.
The Elan Ripstick 108 in 189 cm is the ultimate freeride ski for expert-level skiers who demand uncompromising performance in deep snow and variable big-mountain terrain. Built for charging hard and floating effortlessly, it combines Elan’s most advanced technologies with a freeride-forward shape, making it the go-to choice for powder days, cliff drops, and high-speed descents.
The Ripstick 108 features Elan’s asymmetric Amphibio profile, with camber on the inside edge for solid grip and rocker on the outside edge for smooth, surfy transitions. Its TubeLite woodcore is reinforced with dual carbon rods and Carbon Line Technology for a powerful, responsive feel without the added weight of metal. VaporTip inserts reduce chatter in variable snow, keeping the ski composed when conditions get rough. At 108 mm underfoot, this ski offers optimal float while maintaining agility for navigating steep lines, trees, and chopped-up terrain.
The 189 cm length is designed for freeriders who want maximum surface area, high-speed stability, and confidence when charging full throttle in technical terrain or deep powder.
