I used these skis a few times in Zermatt Switzerland. I wanted an incredible all weather ski. In Arizona I do not use these skis enough so I am sadly parting with them.
The Elan Ripstick 106 are designed to be the ideal choice for intermediate and advanced riders.
The radius of this ski model is 17,you get good turn initiation and control at high speed.
Range of use: 60% on-piste - 40% off-piste
These Elan all mountain skis have a waist width of 106mm, which is ideal for off-piste skiing, but also on the slopes, you can have lots of fun
The Ripstick 106 is the ultimate freeride ski for any terrain. From boundary line to base lodge, peak to parking lot, and trailhead to tailgate this ski excels in all conditions.
There’s a fine line to walk when building your freeride quiver - the widest skis lack performance on hardpack, while narrower skis don’t offer enough floatation, causing you fall behind your buddies on deep days. The Ripstick 106 with Amphibio Carbon Line Technology is the solution, as it’s the perfect width for a one-ski quiver and offers an unmatched duo of grip and floatation. It’s built for skiers seeking exceptional performance while exploring the entire mountain. It’s a smooth ride no matter where you take it - front side, steeps, trees, or exploring untouched terrain, this lightweight versatile ski is up for any challenge. Amphibio profile, Carbon Rods, and SST Sidewall supply the perfect blend of power, smoothness, maneuverability, and precision. It’s hard to argue with Plake: »This is the one ski I can take anywhere in the world and trust it in any condition.«
