Experience elite-level all-mountain carving and versatile performance with this used pair of 2024 Elan Wingman 86 Black Edition Skis (178cm), mounted with integrated Elan EMX 12 GW Fusion X bindings. As the "squadron leader" of the Wingman collection, the 86 Black Edition is designed for advanced to expert skiers who demand uncompromising precision on groomers but also want the capability to explore off-piste. This ski features Elan's signature Amphibio Profile, integrating both rocker and camber into dedicated left and right skis, ensuring easy turn initiation and powerful edge grip. The TubeLite Woodcore (a laminated wood core with two lightweight carbon tubes running along the edges) provides a strong yet energetic foundation, further enhanced by Carbon Rods and Mono Ti construction for superior torsional stability and rebound. Unique to the Black Edition is the addition of Carbon Line Technology, which strategically places extra carbon reinforcement along the ski's inner edge, boosting stiffness and responsiveness for an even smoother and more powerful ride. This results in a ski that can hold like a race ski on hardpack, yet pivot easily for bumps and varied conditions. The included Elan EMX 12.0 GW Fusion X bindings (DIN 3.5-12) are an integrated system binding, offering excellent power transmission, fluid flex, and compatibility with both traditional alpine and GripWalk boot soles.
